ffs get some real figures and actual written quotes from a workshop.
having a 'ballpark figure' is an absolutely USELESS figure when it comes to modifying a car, especially to this extent.

and are you really going to utilise 300kw of forced induction out of two front wheels? if your intention is to 'track' it, then your 'ballpark' figure will increase considerably!

Still very light on the details... if you are serious get him to get you a breakdown of the costs... and make sure u get it cross-checked by another expert to make sure he ain't skimping you on parts he "thinks" you won't need.

yeah... ill ask him for a breakdown... the ****er is a real prick though... no offence to anyone, but he was juz a rude mthfckr **sorriz bout the swearing, needed to emphasise** i think for 10 -14k, 180 to 220kw atw is definitely achievable with juz the 2.2 v-tec along with all other necessities

$30k.... i don't think so.

New break pads included in that price... BIGGER BREAKS, you wanna be able to stop the car with that much power...

With all the emphasis on GO it's easy to forget the WHOA! I'd be making sure they include that in the price for that much money/power.

$14k is a bit cheap, $20k is a bit more realistic. What about a nice custom turbo setup on your b16?

250kw atw ... no probs...got traction? is a different question. you can run that kinda power from a boosted h22a no probs. ive got 150kw atw just running my engine in with my old turbo at 10psi -computer LT8-custom manifold, and 2-1/4 exhaust...getting power isnt the problem, puttin it down will be, and if im right that kind of engine set up will throw your car waaay off balance and give you steering probs.. so then go spend $$$ on suspension.

$$$ wise you should be paying around (up to) 15k for the whole conversion.
