It all depends on what you want the car for. It can be very worth it, or not at all.

with the 5spd, boltons, timing, and AF tuning you can expect to sit at around 100-110whp, 120-130 crank.

either way, not worth it since your gonna take everything out and put in a 3s. unlike your suspension which will always be there... unless you decide to do the awd conversion. and if that's that case, i would have to take your car.

In a 2400-2500lbs car, 110hp is enough to do well. A guy on this site, Miro1975, won last years SCCA Solo II Championship in the regional STS class. That's the class that allows mostly just intake/exhaust/header/suspension. That is really a testimate to how well these cars, even the ST's, can do.
