Cheapest/Best(?) to get 500 RWHP?

Cheap plus TT never go hand and hand. Considering we have not seen the SC kits on the market yet and most of the TT builds are in the range

Cheap plus TT never go hand and hand.
Considering we have not seen the SC kits on the market yet and most of the TT builds are in the range of 15k or more it is hard to put a solid price on power v. price.

By the sounds of it though, it almost sounds like a Z might not have been the best choice for you. It can be easy to pop out power in the VQ but not as easy as in other cars, or even cars putting out 400-500 stock. You might want to look into evo or maybe a Vette if you want NA power, but the Z is going to cost you and if cheap is the route you want definitely stay away from forced induction.

with that kind of power goal, if you are planning on paying full cash, you can start saving now, you can have enough by ummmmmmm....... 2012.5? lol Seriously thats being realistic since its gonna cost you around $15K+ to do everything right. Saving roughly $1000 a month toward your FI fund for about 15-18 months is a hard thing to do unless your bankin. If your gonna take a personal loan, you could do it today, go the cheap route, then we all know how much the 37VHR can handle before it goes pop! DO IT!!!!!!!!!!
