I've refrained here. But.
stock pump $00
83lb injectors $150 used
60-1 hi-fi Turbo $400 used
Staight pipe exhaust I welded $50 in tubes.
up pipe, and down pipe for turbo $100 in parts - I welded it
Larger intercooler Sponsor $150
Intercooler pipes. $100 parts - i welded
Russell Berry Chip $350
Rebuilt Clutch w/ceramic pucks $450
Used Drag radials $50
Total - $1700
Stock everything else. bottom end, Head, cams, intake, TB, manifold. Even on the stock flapper AFM.
I made right around 400whp and ran 11.9 @123mph.
I have since spent what feels like millions and gained 2mph in the quarter.
The huge difference would be on the road course / autocross. Not at the 1/4 mile.
So yeah, I could make our cars look really fast for a very little amount of money. But it truly wouldn't be. There really is a difference, but I could never explain it to where - Say, lets pick on the Honda Guys with Huge turbos - they could ever understand.

NAh, I love you in a non gay way. I'm just saying I don't want you tuning my car, lol.. No really, there are a few things you need to watch other than Peak HP on the dyno.
Timing and a/f's are key and that effects knock, egt's, etc.. There is a limit to your turbo/whole system and you found it but you may or may not have been able to get more TQ out of your setup if you set your timing correctly.

I knew there would be a few things.
But.
Yes. weight was around the 2400 lb mark. later got it down to 2300. That is what helped me get a better time.
But the power was still there. Right around 400.
I also forgot to add that it was on a race gas tune on 110 octane and running 23lbs of boost.
And I'm taking out 044 pump. I was actually on the stock pump when I ran that time!! I was just worried about it and changed it out soon after.
Now, I pale in comparison to SID on this one.
Now, was this a reliable everyday on the street set-up. No way. I usually kept boost to 18. This was every few times a month 23psi run.
