600rwhp is A LOT, close to 700 at the crank. I really, really dont think that would be too fun to drive if it is your daily driver. Different mods will make it more 'drivable' than others. definitely important if you drive this thing to work or something.

no offense, but if your getting speeding tickets your probably doing something wrong. if you must, get a radar detector. but find a local track that you can drive at, you would probably enjoy it.

You'll need a pretty big budget for 600rwhp. This means a fuel system upgrade and a full single turbo upgrade. You'll likely also need wider rims & rubber to make sure that the power can be put to good use. Add in installation costs, the fact that you want it to continue to look great, tuning costs, some track time, race fuel, etc. and I'd say at least $15000 USD is a budget that could get you into the ballpark of what you're looking for. Please let me know if that's a completely unrealistic figure for your budget, and we'll scale back the rwhp until it fits with your budget. If that's not a problem, we'll start getting into the specifics.
