way more than that to build a whole car from scratch, IMO your better off trying to buy one that someone is trying to sell. there are a ton of great deals for cars on this site and others.

all depends on what kind of car your putting together and how you map things out. you can run 9's with 600hp if everything is setup properly, of course the only thing it would be good for is drag racing and little to no street use. there are to many variable when someone asks how much does it cost to run 9's. narrow down your options. what chassis will you be using, engine, trans, gearing, tire size, horsies, coefficient drag, there are about a million and a half more variables to list but i think you get the picture.
