for me id go with something very kicky with no lag:
JDM V9 spec c with s204 mapping,
nismo injectors,
custom exhaust
unequal lenght headers to get the scooby sound back
DCCD controller with the 6 speed
JDM v9 suspenion with the pink sti springs
this list could go on forever
dump it into a GC!

I would probably go with something like this:
-Cosworth Block + internals
-GT35R Turbo setup + Perrin Front mount + Tial 44mm external wastegate
-Probably custom pink injectors
-Cobb Protune ECU
-Tein Flex Coilovers
-exhaust would be custom
Cosworth Block do they doo 2.8L

An STi can take just around 400whp on the stock internals before it starts to unravel. At that point, you need forged internals and a new block to take more power safely. At these power levels, you WILL need a new clutch.
Although, you can get away with 390-395whp with no problems, and full drivability. 400whp is where the headaches and drivability issues start up.

keep on going
well motor and tranny wise thats just about all i'd do, the car will be very fast and reliable for an everyday diver. For inside, some nice jdm s203 seats and whiteline for the all suspension goodies...

The JDM STi engines are traditionally 2.0L, whereas the first STi to hit North America came with the 2.5L. The JDM 2.0L Spec C engine has better internals than the 2.5L and can take more b00st before problems, though I'd imagine the 2.5L will always make more torque than the 2.0L.
2006 STi comes with HID from the factory, yes.
And yes again, personally, I think a GT40 is too much for the lil' 2.5L, unless you like waiting 3 seconds for the turbo to spool. But like people have been saying, there are stroker kits that can bring you from 2.6L all the way to 2.8L, and a 2.8L Crawford block can definitely flow a GT40!!
Can't speak for the others, but I've been looking at Mahle pistons.
