Beware boosting on a budget with this platform is not ideal be prepared to spend alot more than what your planning on. You'd be better off using that money and building the block before going fI....

Well I bought extra mods after that. I spent another 2k for oil cooler/catch can, P3 boost guage and vented hood. Spending 15k is definitely a waste when I have seen guys do it for much less and their cars have been running for 30-60k miles. Also I don't care about more power than 300whp. I'm the kind of guy that doesn't need a whole lot to be impressed especially in a 2800 lb car.
