Forgies -$1500 minimum injectors - $500 ?? T04 + wastegate + manifold = $3000 autronic = $3000 fitted and tuned ?? I figure thats 8 grand already. You got slicks? what compression u wanna run. You gonna do the rods too?? intercooled already?? $7000 and running 10s.. Not meaning to be a smartass, but have a look at what the quick cars on this site are running, and see how much money has been poured into them. I reckon for 7 grand, I'd be changing the turbo, injectors and if you got any change a cheaper ecu

Also the Jatco four speed probably won't last long if you plan to do runs down the quarter mile. You would at the min need a worked Jatco 3 speed($2800), if not that then a trimatic($4000+) Actually on second thoughts this thread is going absolutely nowhere. Do a search and ring workshops on what you should do for $7000. This is going to turn into a flaming session.
