Autronic SM4 ECM - $2500
Garret gt35r Turbo - $1500
Forged pistons - $1000
Machine work - $1500
6MT swap - $3500
Uprated clutch - $1000
Wastegate - $500
Meth system - $1000
Fabrication parts (piping, metal stock, etc) - $200
Tuning - $1500

Probably around 60-80 hours work, but that would be nearly bulletproof

So if you were going to get it done at a shop, tack on another 5-8 grand to the price tag. If you pick up some tools and get dirty, you'll save a ton of money and have something that is truly yours.

I made 380hp on a 2.2L with stock rods. Add another 2 cylinders to that, 570hp. I wouldn't push it much past that on the stockers tho. I upgraded to Eagle rods for the next phase of my build.

Getting 500hp out of my 2.2L is costing me around 20 grand. It should be a hell of a lot less to get it out of a 3.3.
+1 cost of rods, bearings, valves, cams, headers, full exhaust... That GT35 isn't gonna help you... $13000 doesn't go very far for custom parts.
