So...I should save $3000 and do boost instead. Which is another question? is all this do able for about $1000? and if I did this and boost I would literally have more money in the engine than the cars actually worth.

That's what I was thinking. Do all the serious engine work at once when I have it out and then later on start adding more HP. So with this build alone (with CAI) I can expect to see about 180HP?
