In the past when running stock D16's and hmt kits it was cheap and i had little invested in it.I have started a somewhat serious build now and I am aiming for mid 11's, I have spent 5-6g just in parts in last month.There is a point it seams when you cross the line and it starts getting real expensive real fast.I guess there is much worse places to spend your money though.

On the WRX counting the stupid new transmission around $10,000, in 2 years, I could have purchased an STi or a damn M3 by now :-\ :P

On my old civic hatch I spent about $3,000, ZC swap and 2 turbo setups

On the Integra so far around $500, b16a swap, and speakers
