    Cool, all depends what you want it for I guess
    As you probably already know these engines are bullet proof if built and mapped right, be aware though that the jump between 500hp and a reliable 600hp in terms of supporting work is huge, and i personally think you would likely ruin the car as a road going prospect
    There are tons of projects on the forum you should be able to gleen plenty of useful info from

            I'd like to think that in a UR 450 or 600hp is not going to matter nearly as much as suspension and driver skill on the track.

                  I like to think I'm a good driver I do 4-7 track days a year .
                  And I'll be doing suspension and brakes as well before it ever gose on a track .

                    only thing i'll add is whatever you think it will cost, add more to it as you will no doubt go over budget, its the little things that add up more and more.

                        how many times have you crashed as you never know what you can do until you know what ya can not find a sacrificial practice something

                        i have yet to learn a massive amount about handling a car and i am forever punching above my weight its just the i like to think part that makes me nervous.

                        this hole post was to soften the blow of the next line

                                But that's the fun of it.. Modern cars give no feedback.. The main thing with a UR is to set it up so that it slides progressively and doesn't bite back.
