                  Actually from looking at the rules only a 5 point is required at 11.49. However almost every entry level kit is an 8 point.

                                  Looks like Honda-Tech mod list 101 except on a small bore short deck motor and an LS trans.

                                      No, not at all.

                                      Starting with a b16 is a good way to shoot yourself in the foot for having a nice torque curve. Maximum displacement on the short deck motor is roughly 1.8L which is going to limit airflow feeding a turbo that large.

                                      I see a lot of parts on the list that don't need to be purchased and can save you money trying to get a fresh build off of the ground and a lot of parts that are not on the list.

                                      What suspension, safety equipment, chassis materials, etc are you planning on using? Tire size plays into gearing which plays into the rev range that you want the car to cross the line at at the end of the 1/4 mile.

                                      What I see is a pretty standard mod list "everybody" follows when they build a setup on H-T these days just with some changes made for parts that you already own I am guessing.

                                          and with the chassis stuff well thats why this thread existes... so???

                                          Saftey equipment are you just thinking of shit to ask??? who cares if i'm going to be wereing a kevlar reinforced fire proof space suit or a beater i borrowed from my trailer trash freind john... really

                                          next it is gearing you see i don't have a shit ton of money so i use what i can get..
