Slant six turbo cost analysis: 300 hp

My first build prior to EFI. This is embarrassing......
CT26 turbo..$40 craigslist...started it all!
carb hat off diesel..$20 Fall fling
350 Holley carb $25 Ebay
hanger 18 mods..free.
ducting...1 piece. free, came with other turbo I flipped for same price
boost regulated fuel pump..free. just a pressure line modded stocker
Pish-pipe ;-) $20
turbo and exhaust flange..$2 and a scrap piece I made for turbo (too thin)
brass fittings...scraps off other stuff.
exhaust...$12 flex pipe..autozone
header wrap...$15..car show
blow off valve..$18..ebay.
oil lines were trans cooler lines and an A.I.R manifold I cut.
all welding done by me (and you can tell!)
silicone fittings..$15..ebay

I never dynod this and only ran it a few times so no HP results..but it pulled much harder than the original slant, and much louder as I think I had a turbo flange leak. No meth, no intercooler, no boost control. The wastegate was stock at 6 so it was pretty mild. would love to go 15 just to break something but the leaking flange was like a wastegate itself.

All this stuff can be bought new for $$ or sourced from scrap piles like mine. Have fun.
