Money is no object? must be nice.

If i was in your shoes, i would first establish my goals for what you want. Do you want a show car or a performance car or a mixture of the two. How much do you know about cars? Do you know enough to go turbo, or should you just stick with bolt on upgrades?

What i did was slowly upgrade my car with bolt ons until i knew enough to go turbo. There is a vast amount of information on this site. Stick around do some reading, and find out what YOU want.

Money is no object? emoji

I say you get a complete set of mahining dimensions from DaimlerChrysler or Mitsubishi and have as much of the frame and suspension components refabbed from scratch out of titanium. Then buy Squid's carbon fiber body panels and some poly carb windows. After that, I would get the 2.4L and do that swap. High compression, fat turbo AND N20. Stand alone engine computer, one of those 6 speed racing trannys from Quaife and you should have the fastest, lightest, most powerful, and most expensive 2nd gen on the planet.

(I left out the sound system because I'm a gear head and it's just dead weight to me emoji )

Start here...if you want more hp then that then I would say go turbo but you might not know enough about our cars to want to go that route yet.
