[QUOTE="Voltwings, post: 14112853, member: 155561"] What I gave you was the cost of the fuel upgrade since thats what we were talking about. Bolt ons are bolt ons and that money will get spent regardless, we were discussing the extra money and effort needed to get more fuel, so thats what i was covering. Also, you're talking apples to oranges here. You're quoting prices for a twin turbo car, when we're talking about simplicity of modding a single turbo one. I'm not saying the price will be exactly half, but you can get one hell of a single turbo for $2500... my gtx3576 with oil lines / coolant lines / couplers was $1900, and thats a 600 whp turbo on the right car. I had about $12k into my mazda said and done for 500 whp, so i agree its not cheap. However, once you factor in $5,000 for a built motor and clutch, the actual power making parts were not "that" much. The ST motor has already been torn apart, and its noted to be significantly more stout than the MS3 motor, and an Ms3 is good to 450 - 500 on stock block with a good tune. Assuming this EB turbo-4 carries some of the same architechture, a motor build could be overkill for most modders, which would be very cool. [/QUOTE]
