^^ You cant. GTM Stage 1 kit alone is 8k, that doesnt include all the gauges, install, tune, ect

Usually full install for TT kit on V36 will run about 15k.

I already have an HKS Camp II along with all the sensors, Uprev Osiris tuner version and a Walbro 255. dyno tune costs me $200. Installation will be done by me, all I need is a TT tuner kit along with 600cc injectors.

so that's:

$7,500 for GTM stage 1 tuner kit (which already includes external WG's and 3" DP's)
$200 for Uprev dyno tune
$525 for DW 600cc injectors

That leaves me with over $1,500 for any extras.

If you really want to count all of that, I'm well beyond 20k in parts, not to mention servicing, brakes, and tires... I'm getting new headlights, fender, and radiator support for the second time now, and this will be my 4th bumper and lip which is usually due to scraping.
