I have a 98 and 97 manual gsx and the revised 7 bolt motor from the 98 needs to be rebuilt/built do to loosing oil. So since the 98 has some rust I but a very clean 97 gsx. Anyways I know about these cars and what not but just incase im missing something im asking here. So again incase im missing something what is all needed to build a revised 7 bolt for a 2g gsx to handle 750-800hp before driveline parts need to be replaces. So im trying to make a list of everything I need to get to where I need. Like a built trans, twin disc upgraded fuel pumps, 2000/2100cc injectors, bigger turbo (id be getting a pte 6466), Internals for the motor which I have bought already witch is good for 1000hp, gauges to keep an eye on the car, afpr, tune and ect... I know some things I listed wont make the car faster but there will help me keep an eye on the car. My car was built for 600hp before but around 400hp because of the stock trans so now im trying to make it faster and do it all right and get everything at once if I can. Had a 700hp 99 trans am ws6 before so I can handle that kind of power. Want to play with the big boys once again but this time in the gsx and not a v8

Thanks in advance
 
I know I need money and any car you build needs money and im going to do it right even if it takes couple months extra. I just want to finally get this build done right. I might get a trans for the gsx from tre. Know people who went with tre and are very happy. Also the twim disc I have a chance to buy was on a gsx pusing about 900hp and the only reason they are selling it is because there parting out the car to buy a home
 
$30,000 to build a car that won't break every night you decide to set it to kill mode.

You need to over build everything

I have a 98z28 camaro with an on3 turbo kit making 678whp. That setup including the fuel system cost me $4500.

So yeah you're comparing Apple's to oranges. I got out of the dsm game because the ls1 came out. I was trying to build 400whp dsm's just to keep up with bolt on ls1's. I said f*** it and made my dsm's my daily drivers
 
Dsport magazine did a feature with john shepherd I believe on what it take to make a 9 second daily driver. its very similar to your goals and my be worth a read. his conclusion is that it takes about 50K including the price of the car for a mitsu. although he did it with an evo8 I think.
