with, or without labor cost?


although i would have no idea for sure, certainly 100k+ on mods and labor alone.

now sense that was a one off car and prolly took them many tries to get the right turbo picked out, the right clutch, the right fuel system... etc etc. much of the money spent was trying new stuff.


i bet they could duplicate that car for a fraction of what they have spent building the one they have now.

thats a really hard question to answer because they make alot of their own parts and they have so many sponsors so they are getting stuff for free or dirt cheap but if you would really like an answer of how much it would cost for us normal folk you can always go to their site and add up everything.

Well lets say... How much would it cost a customer to have the exact same set up as the silver 8 second AMS car?

Paying for Labor as well? $50-60k I'd guess.

Could be more or less, that's just my gut.
