Nice, the setup you just described is a tested and proven setup. You'll definately be able to get single digit quarter mile times with proper tuning. My car is more of a street car that was used for car shows. Greddy T88h Single turbo on 6 spd getrag. Definately a fun car that can easily be modified to beat anything out on the road. Only thing that i dont like is the strict so cal officers and the crackdown they have on modified vehicle which is the reason why i purchased a mercedes

2JZGTE FTMFW!!

How much RWHP are you looking to achieve? 1500-2000rwhp? If SP Engineering is doing the work and you're on a unlimited budget those numbers should be no sweat.
