They have turbos ................ make it fair and get your own turbo.

http://www.quicktimeturbosystems.com/info.html
$2,900 kits.
says for 87-93's but I've seens pics of ones they do for the SN-95's too

http://bgturbokits.com/store/index.p...roducts_id=197
$3,350

You will still need injectors and fuel pump still with either kit
but it's relatively close to your budget.

Gears with the turbo kit too will really let you hang with them
You'll stomp all over the SRT-4

go turbo if you can but if not sell those gt-40 heads and get some AFR's or canfield or something nice, gears, cam, etc you will smoke those cars, but if you can afford the turbo go for it.

If your buddies are stock, its a drivers race against the SRT4 as you sit.Sprayand gears would be the cheapest setup fora subaru kill....need to break into the 12s.

the suburu can take a 03 cobra down, you need to make about 160 more hp to the wheels just to keep up. gears, cam, good heads and you still lose.

with all your mods you have planed you might make 20hp after the tune, and the gears will get you 3 tenths or so. the neon will still win.

Stock 95 cobra runs the 1/4 in 14 flat. The 03 SRT4 does it in 14.1 while the 04 hits 13.9. Its a drivers race assuming all are stock. Both will take you at the 60 but you will catch up in a 1/4.

Stock 06WRX STIruns the quarter in 13. Not sure what stock gears in the 95 cobra were but if he is running 14 with 3.08 gears, 3.73 and some healthy spray should close that spread up significantly.

Anda 03 cobra vs. 06WRX STI would be another drivers race with identical 0-60 timeswiththe cobrahaving the edge at theendof the 1/4. 12.9 vs. 13.0.
