Already said but over 20k for ALL the goodies. I've seen quotes from 15k all the way to 30k.

Why so you can brag? What's your motivation to have the 'baddest' evo besides being able to say it?

Where do people come up with this 15K stuff!! Unless you stick with Buschur you won't be near that price even using Buschur parts you won't be near that let's look:

2.3 Stroker 3.2K
Head 1.5K
Cams .75K
Exhaust 1k
Fuel 1.25K
Clutch 2.5K
AEM 2K+
Intercooler/pipes 1.25K
Turbokit 4.75K
Labor 3K
Misc 1K

That's 20K not counting tax, shipping, or any trans or axle work. Good luck!!

Good luck and why don't you call Buschur then? We'll all be waiting for pictures and progress reports. Most people that ask don't do while those that do don't ask they just do, you follow?

It would cost 27.5K + labor to replicate Al's car there is a thread on Buschur's forum about that.

Why don't you just buy Curt Brown's car, which is now for sale? Proven setup, and lots less money than trying to duplicate it yourself. $55,000 gets you a low 9 second car with all the bells and whistles.

I definitely think that is more of the DRIVER making it a low 9 sec car. Still a fast car none the less...

Curt is an amazing driver, it's true, but he's not in a running race Look at the list of mods and extras that come with the car. It's VERY well built. Curt says anyone could drive that car in the 9s. Maybe the high nines, given the difference in driving skills, but that's a very well built car for the money.

Dont forget 2500-3000 for a car trailor..... cause this thing will be a track only car if your planning on doing what you want to do. Sure you can drive it on the street but on pump gas and a turbo that big its gonna suck ***** and to drive it around on race gas all the time well thats gonna eat a big *** hole in your pocket. A 9 second car is a tall order make sure you really know what your asking for before you start buying stuff.
