Hope your friend is smart and honest, of so, go for it. I've spent more then that doing it myself... above 4k on the engine etc alone now, just remember everything else needs to be updated as well fuel pump, exhaust all the goods.

is 210 hp enough for you?If not and you're going to start chucking money at an rb20 (like I did) you're better off holding out for an rb26dett.
With the money I've spent massaging power out of a rb20, I could have bought an rb26 and had more power than I do now from the start. It is fun to drive though.
