somewhere around $23,000 for the motor, turbo kit, fuel system and way, way, way, way too much labor.

-- Borla catback + x-pipe - $750
-- Blitz EBC w/ LC-1 WB02 + Boost/fuel gauges - $1,250

That's $25,000 and that's not adding one dime for labor (other than assembling the motor).
kinda looks like a mastercard commercial....
