a complete set up would cost just about that much if not more. the kit, tune, new exhaust set up...

you dont need an exhaust setup...
$1,200 in parts, $300 for a tune. bam, low 200whp range.

Don't get me wrong, I wanted to go with a good NA build for a long time, but i eventually realized that it just wasn't going to give me the power I wanted

Ok time for a quick update. First off I m having a hell of a time finding a 2.4 TB so it might be a little longer than I originally expected to do my testing with it. On a good note though I have an abundunace of new goodies I m getting ready to order in the next few weeks (thank god for overtime). First off I realized the tread on my tires is getting thin so I m going to be ordering some new rubbers. Then come next pay period I plan on purchasing an Exedy Stage 1 Clutch and Exedy Flywheel as well as prothane tranny mounts and possibly TTR's solid motor mount. Will keep everyone updated.

Ok time for another update.............MORE PARTS ON THE WAY!!!! I have ordered the TTR Solid Motor Mount, the Prothane Tansmission Bushings, and will be purchasing a 2.4TB from another member on here tonight! Will let everyone know when they arrive. In the meantime can someone teach me how to host pics so I can post some in here of the process because this thread is starting to seem pointless w/o them. Thanks.
