And that's where he should stop. Past that point the $/hp curve gets wacky.

Your local shop isn't too bad on the cost, but you'll still need another $5k of other stuff. 3" downpipes, exhaust, radiator, etc. You only want to do this once. The real bastard about this is, the numbers look daunting and hard to swallow, but it's soooo worth it.

FYI, If you're thinking about TTing a Z, keep some funds in reserve in case something goes bang. It would suck for someone to be making payments on a car that doesn't run.
