So far for last like 6 years I say about $15,000.
3 sets of rims and tires, OHV motor to start, then Nitrous, then 2.4L 4 speed, then Nitrous, then built 2.4L 5 speed tranny SWAP, Turbo, then Ecotec SWAP, Tranny SWAP , Turbo.

Been through about 4 motors and 4 trannies.
1st Quad cost me $1000 4 speed tranny $600
Nitrous $400
Second was free but the cost to build it was about $3500 (by me)
Isuzu 5 speed tranny swap $1100.
Ecotec cost me about $300
Getrag tranny $500 and everything else another $500
1st set of rims $1000
2nd 18's were $1750
3rd $450 light 16's
4th 15's with SLICKS lol $10 for rims and about $100 for slicks.

Now there was CF hood $450 and Bomes front bumper$300.
Man I can't write it all so far $13,000.
So now that I think about it how bout another $2200 for the Turbo kit and another $500 for tunning $150 AFC $200 tach, $200 gauges.

That is $16,200, about 70% of things, so I say I am about $21,000, so $3500 a year!! lol

Exterior appearance + Interior appearance + Suspension + Engine Performance + Audio System + Labor = Approx. $10,000.


Re: HOW MUCH INVESTED SO FAR????

Somewhere around $1500 all in performance. Just bought a header for $180 shipped though, so that brings it up to just about $1700 and hopefully a much lower timeslip.
