There, I modified Mike's list with my costs on stuff (as far as I can recall). Of course, that's just brushing the surface. I didn't include prices of experimental items which didn't get re-used on the "final" product... such as the V2.2 megasquirt board, the 1.5" mandrel J-bends for my initial header, the weaksauce radiator I initially had, etc... Then, there's all the miscellaneous equipment not on the list - catch can, expansion tank, all the hoses, braided lines and AN fittings (probably about $300 total), the exhaust itself (I bought a Cummins downpipe just for the ball flange
), big injectors and a Walbro pump, adjustable FPR, a transmission and diff capable of dealing with the power, etc...
Basically... there's more than one way to skin a cat. If you're an experienced cat-skinner, you can probably do the job a lot more efficiently than I did. It took me a few tries before I got a well-extracted kitty pelt.
