Great question, I've wanted to know the same thing. Noone really seems to give a straight, here it is, here's how much, here's who will do it.

Doesnt sound like its quite as easy as all that.

sell up, buy a 500hp one which someone else has plummed money into.

a lot cheaper

agreed

You wont get 500 bhp off your jap twins, nor uk spec.

so your looking at a small single, big bucks mate.

450 is achievable on your twins though, for about £1500

You could put it up to 450 and then by a NOS kit to hit 500. A 50bhp shot would be fine for the engine and means that you can drive the car at a comfortable 450bhp and have the extra bit there when needed.

what does RUF have to do with Supra's....I thought they were a porsche tuning company..

450bhp on standard twins.....yeah, probbaly last a few mins before going POP

hmmm that's an interesting thought,

but what does NoS do to insurance premiums and is it safe?

how much would 50bhp nos cost as a setup then?

500 on stage 3 hybrids and mega boost

Sell yours, buy two NAs and a Ford Ka. Bingo - 500bhp.

Assuming you mean flywheel hp, then as already said a small single or hybrids

For a reliable 500BHP you can go hybrids or Single (Single more expensive, but has a much greater scope)

Single spec (Bare minimum)

1 T61

2 650cc injectors (Some would say 550's are fine, but in top gear at 1.4Bar i wonder what the fuel duty would be)

3 Emanage Blue (Control the injectors and a few tweeks)

4 New SMIC or FMIC

5 Fuelling (FPR, Pump etc)

6 High Stall Torque convereter.

With the auto's you are limited not my then engine but by the Auto box on how much BHP you can go for and that's another can of worms.

Well said, that assuming he has an exhaust already. Dont be fooled into think T61 means just the turbo - lots of other bit too T61 Kit should sufice.

Has anyone taken their car to a place and told them to do just that ? how much was it and where ?

I think its safe to say u are talking a minimum of £2500-£3500... Do it once, Do it right! dont cut corners

For all that ? thats peanuts ! If I can go single for 2500-3500 I'll do it tomorrow.

I've been quoted different figures ranging from that to 20k.

Does anyone know a real definitive, here's what you need, and he's what it costs that is actually reliable ?

so many different opinions, but what really works, and what does it cost. So smart answers like sell up and buy another. If you dont know, dont reply.

I wouldn't think you could go from stock to single for £3500.

Going BPU will cost you around £800 and then going single another £4k I reckon.

Isn't Micahel Lane doing a single for someone one on here for £3000 all in? He's doing it for nothing though, ie not charging for his labour.

That sounds more like it, now we're getting somewhere, I dont know about the owner of this thread, but due to already having I should only need the following from your list.

That works out for me to be about 8k... Is that what others have paid ? Is that going to be reliable and who can do it... Traders feel free to step in saying "I can" and "I'll do it for this" etc lol

Ok thats a good price, but some things missing i think. Does anyone know what these are l like ? sure the people selling say its good, but real world, is it ?

The main reason no one will tell you what is needed is because there are lots of opinions on what will make 500 bhp, there is no easy answer.

Search the forum, increase your knowledge and make a choice, its that simple.

Ask tuners for advice and they will be pushing you towards there own kit

It all depends on your engine - some have been fine (most) some have not. Poor roberts went at mapping.

Most traders will be fine to do it - turbofit, pheonix in watford, whifbitz etc. Just have a ring round

Good bit of kit - most are very happy with it (i havent had a chance to use it properly. Will let you know when my engine is rebuilt. Generally people agree that a high stall or manual conversion is necessary

Pig's got those prices pretty much spot on (Except the part about stock wheels not being wide enough is a load of bollocks ).

£6k min going from a stock car to a proper single.

Interesting you say that about the stock wheels....info i have been told. Seeing as alloys and tires are so cheap, lol i may find out if its bollocks or not. Care to expand though?
