Your right I believe they call it a GTRS elim kit...

Yep, you guys are correct. I had my **** mixed up, so I had to go back to the stickies... here's a little quote:

GTRS

This is the elim version of the GT28RS. You can use pretty much any 440cc tune. I would recommend Unitronics and CTapp above all the others. You will need 440cc Injectors (I would advise Seimans, and Delphi over the greentops, Genesis 430 will work too), VR6 MAF, AFPR, MBC, Exhaust, FMIC, and TIP. A new manifold and dp are not required, but will help the turbo breath much better and produce more power.

GT71R

The elim version of the GT2871R. Has the 71mm compressor wheel found in the 2871r but a smaller turbine wheel and uses the stock k03 flange. You will need the turbo, oil lines, exhaust, Tuning (Uni/CTapp), 440cc Injectors, VR6 MAF, AFPR, MBC, Exhaust, FMIC, Walbro 255, Clutch (stg 3 or higher), and TIP. I wouldn't even run this turbo on the stock manifold, even tho you technically could, its gona really choke it.

GT28RS
Finally we get into the "real" turbo's. This is the turbo you want to go with if you don't want to swap internals and you want minimal lag but still want nice power. You will need Tuning (Uni/CTapp (see a pattern forming), if you have a b6- REVO), Exhaust Manifold, Custom Intake, VR6/Ford Lightning MAF, 440cc/630cc Injectors, AFPR, MBC/EBC, Exhaust, FMIC, Clutch, and New Mounts.
So, if this guy has the GT28RS crammed under the hood for this beast, and has the supporting mods listed above, then hell yeah, jump on this car! Worse case senario, if you total the car, you'll get most of your money back by parting out everything under the hood! If you don't mind me asking, where did you find this thing?

Well from what I read it has a PES turbo kit. You need to find out if the PES manifold is cracked because they always end up cracking which is why PES no longer sells that kit. At this time it has become pretty much impossible to find another PES manifold, this means if it is cracked or when it cracks you will have to replace it with a different manifold and this also means replacing the down pipe since the new manifold will put the turbo in a different location.

You will also want to do a quick compression test on the engine to see if it is in good shape.
