How deep are your pockets?

I have done alot of research for my project and anything above 320 foot pounds torque is very unsafe. I would recommend around 280-300 foot pound

When you factor in Turbo,manifold,exhaust,intercooler,rods,intake,hoses,fuel pump,injectors,mapping you could quite easily be into £4-5k.
That's not even factoring in suspension or brakes.

Stroker engines for sale online at £8k and a good GT30 kit for £2400 then your front mount,fuelling, intake, sensors, manifolds, piping, labour costs say £5-6k not including engine mounts, clutch, drive shafts, wheels, tyres, diff, mapping, exhaust, then correct brakes and suspension.....£5k again?
450bhp easy.
