let 800plus for engine. c20let are good, £411 gets yo to around 300bhp, and trust me from experience, its enough to make you piss yourself with fear

Tbh, at that money your laughing, especially if your capable of doing the work yourself. Pinksport paid well over £1500 for his xe including labour costs. Muppetsport your car is probably my favourite on here, classic looks but all that power, bit of a sleeper compared with standard gsi's. Did you do the work yourself?
