is 35grand with or without the cost of the car?

id probably do something like mightymouse.
built engine, turbotech race kit, DFI, suspension, drivetrain, fuel etc.
and be looking on making over 700rwhp without much effort.
id think you could do it for less then 35k on top the car.

I'd wait and see what happens with the QMP twin turbo kit. If it performs the way it looks like it will you should be able to obtain your goals pretty easy.
You'll also need a forged shortblock around 8.9:1 compression, stgII 6.0L heads and a mild turbo cam all this on a 388ci engine would be a beast.
