Considering he has the SR Engine already...

1. Mazworx quoted me $3200 for machine work and assembly.... the only parts I didn't have is the Pistons and Bearings.... this is Block Only!!!

2. I have easily spent $3000 on the Head... P&P, Solids, 270s,Ti retainers, dual springs, seats, guides, etc...

3. Good Intake side... Best Cheep option is the Greddy Short Port w/ 70mm RNN TB., 1000cc injectors and Top Feed Fuel Rail... you would Defiantly need a SARD FPR. Thats was another easy $1500+

4. Turbo Side - Full Race or PowerLabs Twin Scroll setup, twin waste, DP, dumps, Turbo... $3500+

We have hit the $10,000 mark...

This doesn't include any supporting systems that would be VITAL to engine life.

Example: SS Lines, Fluid Damper, Twin Plate Clutch, Aluminum or Carbon Driveshaft, Engine & Trany Mounts... this list could easy go on for another obnoxious mount $$$$.

Basically...
I have been building my car for over 6 years with all the above mentioned parts, and I still am not at a point where its drivable!!

Point being... 6 years - 1 car - $60,000... is it worth it???
