Those figures need adjusting... by miles.

To the OP - set your budget. Double it. Go from there. And I'm not joking. If you budget £1,500 allow more like £2,500. The budget will dictate how much power you can get, unless budget isn't a problem, then just pick how you want the car to behave - is there a reason you want to go turbo? Supercharged is far kinder to every component, can be just as powerful to all intents and purposes for what's usable on the road.

Are you chasing pub figures or want a road or track weapon?
