- and this will literally cost like $1500 ($600 for BM3, $600 for down pipes) 
- Up to 1050hp is possible on stock engine internals with upgraded turbos, upgraded fuel system/port injection and cooling system
- my thoughts on this point is that this will cost around 10k-12k but that's incredibly cheap for that kind of level of power
- the question here is how the transmission will handle it |
Transmission, differentials and even other components would be subject to more stress. This is not as easy as "let's deploy 1000hp and never look back". |
THIS!! Stuff is going to break at 950-1K torque. Lol. Especially if your drag racing. Not that it can't but I will be surprised if the tranny and axles don't fail early on if your driving the car hard. Just have to be prepared to shovel out a bunch of cash when you explode shit. Motor/tranny. The damage from those failures can cause a bunch more damage and repair costs. Been there/done that. You live and learn. Other expensive parts/sensors always seem to get caught in the cross fire when stuff breaks. It blows
