Tower how in the hell does it cost $34k to build a motor lol. Please tell me if I'm wrong or something isn't right here... But my friend just built his VQ35HR for about $6k. Carillo rods, Carillo Pistons, Jwt cams, full valvetrain (not sure exactly what brand) ARP bolts, plus other little things and it literally came out to be $6K. The 35HR isn't that much different than the 37vhr. Say a motor build costs around $10k, paired with a $9k turbo kit that can handle 800rwhp... I'm good with that
I think he was referring to a hole package. Built motor, TT kit itself, and all the goodies that go with making a 800 HP car. Full out return fuel system, built heads, and if he went with a full stand alone ECU. That's easy territory.

Also I like the fact that this MHI kit with 18G turbos on a built motor will put down some serious numbers. I don't think you would have to upgrade to Garret turbos. Maybe just rebuild the ones you have while your there. You'd be more than happy enough.
