[s-cars] S8 Upgrades- UPDATE

[brian bilotti]

Ok Guys,
Thanks for all the responses, here's the lowdown so
far:
Chip- 14HP WEAK!!!!! :-( $600+
Exhaust- +/-5HP :-(((( +/-$2000
Air Filter- ???HP   CHEAP$ in comparison
The $$/Horsepower equation here really sucks, sure not
close our old horses.......

Now for real stuff:
-MTM- Supercharger 456hp - STOP- Gotta send car to
Germany for 6+ weeks Cost $35,000
-Hohenester- Twin Turbos 450 HP- $30,000- Not
including the techs coming here to do the work.

Well, at $3000+/HP, this is enough to choke a horse
and we're starting with a car that cost $82 large out
the door. YIKES

We'll get the brakes sorted by using 2 piece slotted
rotors (OE 346mm size). Any suggestions on a source
for hats, I got the rotors sourced.

That's about it, anymore ideas are always welcome.

later
