10g should get you a freshly rebuilt vlt motor/ gearbox brake upgrades, management and turbo. And might still have some cash leftover to tidy other bits up.

How much do you want out of it, whats your goal.

Didn't think you could run extractors with a turbo! We were discussing it at Tafe awhile back, and it seemed like no overuled, why's that?

You can run extractors and a turbo they have to be custom made of course (usually from steampipe bends) but they can add KW just like they do on an NA. I have seen some beautiful Nismo polished tuned length, titanium extractors for skylines. mmmmmm delicious

Your looking at about $1000 to make up a new manifold for a VLT.
