I would definantly do bronze fork pads, billet 3-4 keys, steel 3-4 fork and carbon blockers. If you have no other issues you can get that beast to hold at least 700rwhp. If you are looking at pricing an average is going to be about $950 not including if anything might happen to it or shipping. Hope this helps.

Do what Amber suggests. The biggest problems are syncro's and keys.We run many 6 M6's over 700rwhp with just these upgrades and never have problems.
