Over 3 builds I have about 90k into my RS including the 15k cost of the car. On the current build I hope to be close to 700whp with a t4/t67 and nitrous. That's s still a long way off from 1000hp though. My setup is very basic but unfortunately still expensive. I don't see a car for $50k that will support 1000hp for more than a few seconds, especially with no nitrous. Just the current build literally has 45k into it- engine is about 16k, tranny was 4k, clutch was 2k, EMS was $2500, fuel system was 2k, suspension was 2k, diffs were 3k, turbo was 1k, i'm making all my piping, nitrous kit is 1k, drag radials are $800, cage was 2.5k, intercooler was 1.5k, axles were 2k, brakes were 1.5k, plus all the other misc crap you need like an fittings, gaskets, etc, etc. It all adds up quickly. I don't tink with 50k and no nitrous you could do it.
