20k with installation fees as well but without saying too much: engine, wheels, powder coating pieces

For $20k, I'd rather upgrade the whole car.

obviously he is going TT. Check out his sig. 20k isn't really that much to put into the G. You don't even get a built motor for that with a TT kit and install.

Ha, I missed the sig . OK, JWT, Greddy, APS...???

I agree, 20k goes quickly when you have a shopping list that has new wheels, TT, and engine build on it.

Ya, thats horrible. I'm 20 years old, so $20,000 for me is a hell of a lot of money. I spent that much on the entire car, I don't think I'd ever be able to put that kind of money to upgrade the car.

But I guess if you have the money to spend, might as well have fun with it

You can get a built engine and TT for less than 20k,

Forged Performance Stage 1 short block is $3500, JWT TT kit is $7000, stock heads are fine for that TT kit. Install isn't going to be $9000 or else I'm in the wrong business!

OP, looks like you have all your ducks in a row, can't wait to see the finished product.
