On a 40k P-T build, where do you cut corners? What is the biggest thing that saves money? The engine, suspension upgrades? From the design it looks like body, wheels, trim, ect are all going to be total P-T, but where do you save the big money?

Save on the engine, spend on the suspension, save on not doing mini-tubs and stuff. Save on color sanding and buffing, spend on the CF stuff.

Junkyard LS1 or 5.3L with heads/cam for 450ish hp.

It's a goal to shoot for..
