What platforms make power easier?

You ain't getting to 800 whp for less than 35k on a Z or any other platform of the same price. You also need to be prepared for it to brake or blow up. There is always additional cost for high performance. I got five pretty reliable years out of my Fast Intentions TT setup before I blew my OEM motor. She was tuned to a max of 600 whp and I pretty much kept it at 500 to 550 and believe that was more than enough for the street and track. Save yourself so trouble and boost your OEM motor and stay at about 600 whp and you can keep the cost down.

The other option is to get a Miata and boost it to 300whp and walk all over v8s!

How much was the build for 600whp on your stock motor? Even with a built motor 800whp has to be more reliable than 550whp on stock motor? I could be wrong thats just my thinking.
