Someone please clarify - why you would want to spend that much just for 25 hp gain?
Is it what you could do with it afterwards? By that time you should just go buy a vette or M5.

First of all it wouldn't cost you the full amount. There is a pretty healthy market for used F20C motors($5-6k) or if you blew your motor up it would cost close to 10k to have the std. factory motor installed. Add 2k and you have a Spoon motor in your car. With all the Ti parts the engine would have unlimited possibilities. It may be only 265 at the crank but the hp/tq differences under the curve would be enormous. Just my .02
