The Kumho V710 are like what, $200/tire (depends on the wheel size and width of course).

Turbo kits vary so much based on the turbo kit and size/quality of the turbo. If you went with a $2000 kit I can believe it. However the Tein SS, V710s and turbo kit seem to be closer to $4000 total (Tein SS $1200 + V710s $800 + turbo kit $2000).

If you are using used parts/discount parts do to sponsorship to make a fair comparison you would need to do the same for the other cars listed above?
You're right about Tein. New kit runs about 1100-ish. I did alot of research on Tein stuff. I was about to get a kit for my car, but I was thinking about getting a new car and bike, so I didn't get it. Now I got a bike and waiting to get FT-86.
