Honestly, is there any basis for this 600hp engine? Is it 600hp CAPABLE with the parts that they are using, or what? How do you know that this engine can actually put down it's claimed "600hp". It doesn't add up to me.

You also don't need to spend 10 grand to get there. If you HAVE 10 grand laying around, why don't you build the motor yourself, even with labor it would probably fall short of that by a few thousand.

I like how on the site, they show them tearing up the car (burnouts etc...) and then say "This car can be yours".... after we're done with it.

JGY is located here in Virginia, I was going to send them my wiring harness for my SR20. but when I called them last week, they were like "oh we stopped doing that service, but we can do it for you for $300 each harness (we have 2)" Although on their website they say 200 for an s14 going into an s14

Not enough info, way too many variables, and scary

There are many different ways to make 600hp, and even more ways to make 400hp. You could have a 400hp motor that is far more valuable than a 600 one. Need lists of parts, how was it used, condition, generation, who built it, etc.

This man speaks total truth. There are definitely a lot of ways to get to your horsepower goals, but the question is definitely reliability among other things.

Give us more details!

get 2 400HP cars, combine them and make 1 800hp car.
Obviously the best route to take.

Yeah we know who they are. If you are so confident in them why did you ask if you should buy em or not?
