So, I just did some quick math on about how much Robert has probably spent based solely on his motor/transmission mods... next to his mods, I put basic estimates next to each mod, to show how much all of this could have cost:

Performace/Power Mods:
- JWT 700BB Twin Turbo System w/ HKS SSQV BOV & Swain Tech BBE Coated FMIC $6950 (MSRP for just TT kit)
- Koyo Racing Radiator $380
- Cosworth Intake Manifold $1149
- UR Underdrive Crank Pulley w/ Gates Belts $210
- DeatschWerks 600cc Injectors $340
- NGK Iridium IX 1-Step Colder Spark Plugs $44
- Stillen Oil Cooler w/ Thermostat $400
- Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump $70
- APS 2.5" Test Pipes $200
- Stillen TD Cat-back ZR Single Tips $800
- TurboXS UTEC $800
- TurboXS Tuner Wideband w/ Bosch O2 Sensor $350
- TurboXS DTEC Map Sensor $90
- Perrin Boost Solenoid $90

Transmission:
- JWT Clutch & JWT Flywheel combo $770
- AP Stainless Steel Clutch Line $70

Total: $12,713

These are just loose estimates... based on average deals you can find via google. If he shopped around, and bought used parts, vendor deals on forums ect, could have been significantly less. This is not taking into account for wheels, tires, brakes or suspension.... yes, it seems like a TON of money, but judging by his list of parts, he's built a VERY well rounded car, spared no expense, and seems to have everything covered, in order to make a ton of power reliably... can't wait to see what it puts down after the motor is built and he turns the boost up.... on a built motor, I could see his car putting down 700+whp. Just my $.02

Just a quick FYI, Robert put down 398whp uncorrected on MAC's dynojet, and I believe I recall seeing No-Coast-Punk posting that uncorrected numbers on MAC's dynojet are about what they put down corrected on their (Revolution's Performance) Dyno Dynamics.[/b]


Don't forget to add the bling. Stop-Techs all around ;-)

Nice setup all around.

Yeah, damn nice... although I'm not going to spend my entire day trying to calculate what Rob has spent so far, hell, the brakes alone list for around $4450.... the wheels were probably around $3000-4000.... and there's no way I'm going to price out every gauge, interior accessory, suspension component, audio mod ext. Check out the full list:

If I had to guess, I would say he's probably around $20,000-$25,000 in mods based solely on my own estimates. Needless to say, it's definitely ready to be featured in a major magazine lol.

So was it worth the trouble?? Those numbers are HOT! I can't wait for my first ride Wednesday night...HINT HINT *NUDGE NUDGE* <POKE POKE> Don't make me have to beg for it....[/b]


If the car is out of Car Toys sure.

I can't believe you made that kind of power on ONLY 6.5psi of boost!! That's AWESOME!! Nick obviously did an awesome job, as your AFR's are uber-clean, like a perfect etch-a-sketch line across the board!! They look to be around 12:1 all the way to redline, is that your daily driver tune?

I'm extremely impressed... and now retract my previous statement about wanting to run you lol... unless it's from a stop... preferably in the rain/snow haha. As it's obvious, the second you get traction, even at "Stage 2" my STI would have no chance in hell lol.

Like previously asked, was it worth it? Me personally, I would be VERY happy! That's a beautiful curve, just one question, was that on 91 octane?

Anyway, very impressive, congrats Robert![/b]


Thanks! I'm very happy with it. Of course there are haters but oh well... I'm happy and don't regret anything.
