You did say you are going turbo but how much boost do you plan on running
Sleaves are out there for the zc along with aftermarket parts but they are harder to some across than the a6 and z6 motor I personally would go with the zc because I have had one and I liked the way it performed I also had a a6 when I first got the car but it was only running on 5 pounds for a little while and I blew it up 165k on motor and I missed a shift I have no personal experiance with the z6 but I think there are more redally avalible aftermarket parts out there for the z6 and a6

10 pounds is a little iffy on stock internals it is done but the reliability if the motor will decrease I would say go Z6 build it up (easer to do than a zc) and have fun with the boost

z6 all the way

tons more aftermarket, along with cheaper aftermarket (because its not so hard to find)

boost=good

No but seriously. Turbo ZC. Gobs of torque(relaitively speaking). And its fairly cheap to boot.
