$375 for the test pipes
$1490 for the exhaust

Not counting labor and tunning...So about $30-35 k with stuff Im forgetting..
All that for a 1/4 mile? I can only assume that you and the company are going to more than make up for it in other ways.

^I'm sure his car has seen the 1/4 mile far more than yours. Besides, speed is addicting, and julian is a known food and speed addict (along with me, on the food atleast)

Julian going on a diet: I'll believe it when i see it. lol! Nice ET man. That car must be BEAST! PM me a great price on that TXS exhaust w/ TP..my cuz wants 1.

So what's your point? My car saw the 1/4 mile once. I got bored. I agree that speed is addicting. I prefer a different track, that's all.

I am just pointing out that it's a lot of money to invest in such a business venture for the shop's reputation. More props to him and his crew. I see that a lot of locals are going to his shop for this very reason.

Julian, fast is relative. I think 11.6 is pretty fast. That's a hell of a trap speed you're getting. Just stay safe and be careful.

I just want to make sure I have this clear
"full race port and polish of heads and intake runners by Headgames"

These are stock heads that have been ported, polished and then the valve train upgraded by Headgames, right?
And all this is going to run $5,000 for the parts and labor? (Maybe less with no cams)

The port and polish with the complete valvetrain and cams will be in the $4000-5000 range depending on how extreme you go.

What different stages are available? And the more extreme I go, if there any downside to it? Is there any drivability issues? Or is it just a matter of cost?

I am seriously considering getting a head done. Still deciding between Cosworth and HeadGames. Head will go onto a sleeved 3.8L shortblock.
