i agree the turbo is the way to make the Big power as long as you can harness that beast on the spool up off the line...i know they have come a long way in this area..

Ya know....its hard to price another mans work..and i am of the a firm belief you really get what you pay for..by the sounds of it you have a ton in this car with Turbo's Only...so i would not sacrifice Quality for price at this point ( within reason)

I can tell you this. Alan Pittman a very well known chassis builder ( scotty cannons ex pro-mod chassis man ONSAT) ( also owner driver of the pro-mod car Grave digger..Now sold)..he will not work on just anything.
He gets a minimum of $750.00 up thru $1,000 just to set up a car..this is everthing you can think of scaling.diagraming on the floor etc...just setting it up...you can betcha its straight as an arrow with minor adjusments to be made at track if any...i know this sounds like a ton of money to some people but ya gotta understand what type of cars he is setting up..anywhere from 80k to 200k cars running sub 6 second 1/4 mile et's..when you are dealing with cars like this 1k is money well spent to assure the thing will work properly..Your life and monetary investment

i will go out on a limb here and say if your chassis guys are near the quality of Alan Pitttman..go ahead and subtract 1k for the chassis set up this leaves you $2800.......i would say ya got a pretty good deal there.
