Ok, if you consider a built motor as a "supporting mod", then you're too low on costs. You can put the kit on and build the motor later, if you even need to at all. The car can easily handle 500 whp without a built motor. You may find that's enough in this car. The jury's out on the twin sc kit, but in general sc is not the correct path for an all-out big power build. Install it yourself and have someone else tune it. It'll come with a canned tune that's very good. 4.08 gears on a FI build will convert the power into tire smoke, not forward momentum. There's a 3.3 rear end if you're going for 600whp+.
