Camber Bolts $ 30

Some weight reduction. $0

Total: $2000-$2400

That should be enough to outrun a STOCK mini or Miata on the twisties.


Power wise

For 140 HP you are looking at force induction only. $3800 for blitz SC or go the custom route with a turbo set up which will be more than the blitz....

the 140hp matters a lot if he's talking about crank or wheel hp. the 123whp that richard holdener is putting now, all motor, is just over 140bhp...
