Ok guys,
Just gone through and deleted hundreds of posts of crap to clean this thread for mitch taking me an hour. Keep the thread on topic and dont carry on with random chat. Some chat is fine but keep it at a minimum. So from here on this thread and discussions are to be related to the build thread.

Thats the price tag you'd be looking at mitch just did some simple addition and for motor, manifolds, brakes and exhaust i worked it out to be about 25 grand, then would have to buy the turbos and all the other necasary items 457rwkw was where i got to under perfect conditions but under normal conditions was around 405rwkw. The $100k + price tag was for a whole lot of car mods not just the engine. Need to determine what budget you want to work to and if you plan to do it yourself. 220rwkw is one level 250-300rwkw is another Over 300rwkw is a whole other ball game. 220rwkw - 230rwkw you can do yourself and keep it cost effective but i would DEFINATELY reccomend spending some money having a profesisonal do the tune once the hardware is installed. 250rwkw - 300rwkw you need to do gearboxe and clutch mods + drivetrain mods as it simply wont last.
