i never cared too much for the SC, just because the small amount of power advantage they had over the LX was rarely worth the trouble and expense of working on them. The SC did offer many other advantages though, the seats, the active ride control(which WAS available on the LX), the 4 wheel ABS w traction control and the bigger sway bars.
A decent choice, and lest we forget the 5 speed...i say dump that and install a t56 or t45, port the supercharger, and do all the other bolt ons. Just be prepared to pay for them...
