that spoolin up cop is nice. how much did it all cost you with that nice carbon fiber top? I still need more parts. Modding is a pricy game, but once you have a fully built car you're in a "special class" of auto owner. it's all worth it when a random group of people in an m3 try to style on u then you boost from 0-45 mph instantly keeping it legal speed and not racing but still shattering their egos. i'm not going to build my transmission nor get an upgraded tcase since the 9 tcase is good but torque over 420 can break anything. 550/400 tq is my goal. And even that is pricy. But slowly and slowly it'll all come together. Just do it right nice and slow. at the end you're car is still faster accelerating and better handling than a 95k porsche for under 40k and that is the ultimate bottom line to the evo period

Np i just get tired of seeing threads about I want this whp and NOBODY EVER talks about the cost of things its nice to have 550whp evo but how much money and TIME was behind getting there is the true question now for 10k you can build a mean evo for sure but again when you say budget build your looking at modist numbers 320-420 which probaly put you 3000-5000 into it
but I agree with everything rockmanX has said
who's doing your build if you don't me asking?
all I gotta say is be patient take your time and DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
Also if you get a 35r you're gonna need a lot more fuel(I'm gonna guess 1450cc if not larger depending on what kind of fuel you will be using)and a double pumper. Once you get the fueling sorted out you're gonna be limited by the oem bottom end and then what? might as well just do it all at once

if you are not going to e85 a single walbro would be enough but you will definitely need bigger injectors. make sure you get a good tuner and possibly get it dyno tuned so that you could monitor the tq and keep it on the safe side.

well that and the OP isn't really telling us what he wants to do with the car most of the questions he stated he should be asking himself before posting

lol im just saying things get pricey then sometimes you open a can of worms you did not know was there so more money and if your not installing all this stuff even more so unless its basic bolt on when you start getting into the block expect to spend some cash

I want to do a build on my head. At the same time I was thinking of re building my block, my goal is to get 700 whp out of my evo. But to be more on a realistic level, im on a budget build, im trying to get the best bang for my buck.
What would be my best bet in this scenario?
How much can my stock block handle?
Will I need to run a double pumper set up ?
What do you reccomend for building a head? As in what kind of valve train? 272 or 280 cams ?
Also I really have my heart set on the front face manifold, I realize that most people think it is more of a " just for looks " mod but its what I want. What would you guys reccomend the size of turbo I should go for ?
Sorry for all the questions but I have been scouring through pages of great info and I just havent found all of the information I need to go through with my build.

Rock,
I've received the clutch. It's in good shape i'm gon order the rebuild kit. Sig updated. I know to research and take time it's a lot. and it is pricy but no big deal if budgeted properly. matt from spoolinup is near my house so i should go pick one up if there are any available.
Emery @ stm,
thanks for shipping the ic couplers and tbolt clamps.
42revo,
fic 1450 will let your idc not be so high and they drive like stock if tuned and scaled nicely. But, for now the 1000s are enough i assume

talk with emery at STM, for the stock block game i want to say there is no one better.
I didnt spend the afforementiond 20K and i am right at the 520ish whp on a low,low reading mustang dyno and low 10 sec time slips. my car is still 98% full weight and i can suprise a few people when it comes to a random contest of speed. It all in the right combo of parts with a good tuner behind them, Any questions on a stock block question ask emery, myself, draven83, or lillev23. we all seem to be going after stupid fast times on the stock block.
In the end with the stock block you have to know that it might go at any time because you are pushing it to its limit and eventually anything, no matter how built it is it will let go.
