I would expect the Z4 kit to start around the pricing for the RHD M3 stage 1.
It's just one of those things, you don't share to the world how much money you make in a year, share what you spent on a house, cars, etc. so why would you openly post how much something like this would cost
Bottom line, our custom built to customers spec setup is going to cost more than another companies mass produced kit, there's no denying that. If that's not what you're looking for then look into the other options. Regardless of the price for this particular customer, to another customer it may be very different. This isn't a off the shelf bolt on kit, it's built EXACTLY as EACH customer requests. You need this but not that, perfect we can work around it, you want an E85 fuel setup, sure no problem. You want only a pump gas fuel setup, sure we can do that as well and save a few grand. There's endless options when you choose EVERYTHING in the build! We are not trying to compete with HPF or their Z4M kit if it is ever released. We are offering an extremely high quality, hand built setup, catered to the way each individual customer wants it. This is no HPF setup, period, please do not try and compare them. They are for two very different customers looking for two different end results. Pricing given to this particular customer includes a full 4" exhaust splitting into dual 3" pipes into rear mufflers and quad tips. Exhaust is pretty much never included in anyone else's "kit." Trevor's turbo of choice was a GTX35R, a $2,400 turbo, for this setup a dbb billet 6765 again a $2,200 turbo. Compare that to a journal bearing 6765 used by HPF, $1,200 turbo. Completely new fuel system with our setup, new 6an lines from the intank pump to a Bosch 040 inline (no $100 walbro here), new aluminum fuel rail, upgraded Aeromotive FPR, ... I can go all day trying to show where the extra cost comes from. You don't want any of these extra's, no problem we can build a apples to apples setup as well.  |
ermmm disclosing your personal income and sharing with a z4m commuinty the proposed cost for a turbo build is completely different, for the serious people out their this is worthwile info..... and even its very high, looking at the standard of work i i could see why.....its worth the high price for someone that wants a turbo setup, id 100% have this over the hpf setup anyday imo..... but i do understand why you wish to keep it quiet.
