say... say the car you bought out the door was 35k and you're figuring on spending another 25k.. thats 60k..

at the end, you have a modded car that is worth less than what it would be worth un-modified..

i would sell that car, go out and buy a lightly used corvette z06 (easy to find these days) or porsche of some flavor...

or i would be something like a 3 or 4 year old WRX/STI or EVO as a second car and mod that instead..

what with the oil over-heating issues, i would be very wary or slapping on a twin turbo kit before its been done extensively and the bugs worked out..

what would be cool (but wont happen) is for nissan to come out with a z in vette price range territory with twin turbos, like they used to on the 300zx...

They already have that. It's called GT-R
