When you get into high power you need more resolution, as the ecu averages the gaps between the data points, the bigger the gap between points the more chance there is for something to go wrong. Also with some applications you need the higher resolution just to tune.

Abs shouldn't have anything to do with the PCM. It has it's own control unit. I don't use abs on anything, crossfire included. Learning how to threshold brake teaches you better car control plus you can brake harder and later without having to worry about the abs freaking out on you.
$2k is alot of money though.. It may be the best option but I feel like alot of guys would be happy with a 300-400hp low boost setup, which would be no problem with MS. I have a feeling the stock motor would hold up to it, at least for a while. I have a feeling you are swinging for the fences lol, I know you get what you pay for.. but you said it, its just a car that is depreciating in value. If it blows up, you can still drop in an LS for less than having all the custom stuff made for the original engine. I'd love to have a stock appearing turbo v6 that makes crazy power, but I don't have the money to pull it off. There's a good chance my car will be bastardized with a chevy engine if the stock engine takes a dump .
