Right, what I'm saying is when you start getting into doing things properly imports tend to cost more. The 4g63 may be an exception because you can just shove as much boost as you can make down its throat and it won't break...but I can't think of many others that would hold their own. That means upgrading the trans, fuel system, cooling system...you know, the works...so you can drive the car and it doesn't self-destruct.
