Given that it's very hard to source any parts for these cars at all, let
alone upgrade
parts, it strikes me as a minor miracle that anyone still supplies
performance parts
for them any longer. So $900 sounds ridiculously cheap to me compared to the
time and trouble it would be to do it yourself from scratch. Praise the
Lord!

Having a lot of btdt with this car, I can attest that performance mods to it
have
never been cheap nor easy other than increasing the boost. In fact it must
be
stupidly expensive these days to up-rate the 10V 5000/200 (although
surviving
examples of the car itself must be virtually free.)
