About $3,800.00 since buying it in 05/03. Probably another $2,500.00 (this year) before I'm totally satisfied with the look and performance. (Dear God, what am I doing!!!)

The last year wasn't as expensive as it should have been, I didn't do the rebuild that I was supposed to, just: intake, downpipe, boost and egt gauge, gauge pod, exhaust, radiator, thermostat, radiator hoses, short shifter, hood, cooling fans, new used fenders, alternator rebuild, ast elimination, hmm, maybe more then $1,500....damn, I estimated wrong, a bit over $2k. Oh well, my vote just thrwe off the statistics a wee bit.

5-10k I was wondering where it went. Remanufactured engine, rebuilt tranny, new clutch kit, labor. Now I need to replace my turbos, anyone looking for a 2nd FD?
