Yes I know, there's millions of other threads for this so don't waste your breath debating it with me but man, the premium prices for such low returns are crazy on this platform..
Maybe I am naive, but I think that number is a little out of sorts and very much depends on your power goals and how much labor you are supplying yourself.

I have less than 10k invested in going TT and that includes the $400 in labor for farming out my clutch/flywheel/CSC installation.. I did the rest of it on my own.

That being said.. if I wanted to go to the next level in power it would come with a pretty hefty price tag.

If you keep things basic and only want 500whp, it can be done for a reasonable price.
