Yeah, my guess would be more then most peoples turbo kits alone... Then again I know little about WM's other then the pics of their "red carpet" quality products people keep posting in here..

If i ever have the $$$$ and need for something that nice I def know who I will be talking too..
(but thats very unlikely ill ever get to that point.)
