Two words: Big turbo. Did i say big? Sorry, I meant huge. People running t67 and bigger rarely see those results. Not that they couldn't, but after spending what they have spent, they don't want to risk it all at the amount of boost required for that kind of power. You would need to rebuild your internals ($1000), get huge injectors, metal head gasket, RAS, valvesprings (those would be about another $1000) Thenyou would need the turbo itself, for about $2-4k depending on what. And you still haven't even addressed fuel supply yet. You would need management and a N1 skyline pump. Cams and head work wouldn't hurt either. So, you are way over your bidget and still havn't even sddressed the cost of labor yet, which would be in the thousands. But here's the more important issue: why do you want so much power? Sure it would be amazing, but its not necessarily so much about how much power, but where the power is. With that kind of setup, your lag would be ridiculous and boost would probably come on at about 5k RPM. Then you woulkd need to spend thousands trying to get all that power to the ground. You would need a monster clutch, probably not very streetable, and a strong custom driveshaft. Even then I bet you would have traction probalems. And you spent about $25k...:rolleyes
