I almost fogot to mention i've looked up these prices to many times but i think i off on the engine but im not sure also w/ that setup tuned right you will be looking at low 12's high 11's if your a good driverbut hell if you got the money keep us updated!

$3k for a full swap? whered you get that from? it wouldnt cost $3k to swap in an engine. with a built motor on a turbo he should be running low 11's perhaps even dipping into the 10's if tuned properly. so you didnt really shoot down my idea, its still alive and well. suspension doesnt net you power, it helps put the power down and so does a better clutch. but i figured if hes gonna research, then ill add that.
