P tax continues, parts cost and work required sends most engine rebuilds into the statosphere. I have a P mechanic that spent last winter doing engines and he was telling me there was 30K in parts for one engine and he had really done nothing to it and labor was on top of that. Fast becoming a land not for the mere mortal. 
You made me laugh with that WHINE comment.
I can remember being 18-19 y.o. in the 70's trying to follow a Porsche 6 on the 401 in traffic and the sound emitted by it was enchanting when he was passing cars Like a siren, ... mermaid,... calling you to follow
Most builders say it is not even worth touching a N/A subie to increase it's power due to cost so $ for $ a turbo subie wins hands down in any cost benefit analysis.
