Tim, no, I meant $15K each. A friend has the Exige and we're both contemplating our options for more power. We're both much more interested in a NA solution.

For those that wonder why I specified "no turbos", it is because I don't like how they drive at the track; at least I have not drive a turbo that I liked.

A supercharged 2zz is okay, but I think you need to build it up to be reliable when running over 240HP. My understanding is that the top end of the 2zz is not that strong so I have some concerns about using a 2zz that has not be properly fortified.

Thanks.
