Message Sell it and buy a TT.

I love my Z and I did not want to part with it so I had my NA engine built into a TT engine and bought everything else required to do the build right. it was an expensive process.

Here is what I see as the basic costs:

(New)
stock TT engine from IPP is about $4,000
Manifolds+full exhaust ~$2,000
turbos $2,000
Intercoolers + piping ~$1,000
TT injectors $500
TT ECU $250
TT EFI $500

Labor $2,500

You're looking around $10,000 for the basics if everything bought new, before the cost of labor.

(Used)
Cost of front clip ~ $2,500 - just a guess I have no idea on cost of a clip.
General maintenance on engine ~ $1,250 (timing belt, acc belts, hoses, fluids, labor for someone to do it)
Exhaust $750

Labor $2,500

Looking at $4,500 before labor.


Rebuild NA engine
$1500 parts

$1500 labor


That's just how I see it. I'm sure others will have other input.
