I won't tell you what I paid for my vvti turbo because you'd hate me (under 10k) but here's what's on it so far. Bought it in July last year, 100% stock


Greddy E-manage ultimate - let's say a conservative 1.2k installed, tuned etc.
Greddy LS intercooler - $700
Supra four piston brakes $950
Turbosmart boost controller $200
Turbosmart boost gauge $100
Mandrel bent dual 2.5 exhaust $550
Tomei ARMS M8280 Turbo $1500
Bosch 550's $500
Walbro GS342 Fuel pump $200
Work CR Kiwami wheels $2k w/o tires
B&M trans oil cooler $150
engine oil cooler $250
Koyorad tripple copper core radiator $250
MV autos shift kit $400
Spare gearbox $200
Spare vvti engine ecu $200
Spare vvti 1j soarer throttle control ecu $200
Spare vvti turbo airbox $100
Late model supra 3 spoke steering wheel $300
TRD thermostat $100
dump pipe $400
New front main, crank case, and cam seals $600
pedders shocks/springs $600

And that's still a long way from being finished & I don't want to think about how much if you combined my V8's cost so far either.


And the only other cars I'd consider buying would be a late model 6spd Supra twin turbo, or a very clean JZX100. So guess it's kind of worth it?..
