I added everything up from the places I can find everything and it was just a little shy of $14k. It'll be a good learning experience. But on another note, I do feel that you won't be able to handle that kind of power. I don't think I will either, thats why when it's done, I'll be turning the psi up by 3 psi once a week so I can get used to it.
14k was my original budget, 600whp. It's now $18k or so, excluding the car, suspension and wheels. I'm not trying to discourage you. Just be ready for the little things to drive up the price... Good luck
