how much money you got ??? its no cheap to do it right.

your looking at rods and pistons and a re-bore new bearings and oil pump £700-1500

bigger injectors £250+

turbo £150-1300

exhaust manfold £50-600

fuel pump £130

up rated valve springs £260

management of your choice +mapping £????

and theres loads of little things that all add up fast £???
