I wouldn't really call it inexpensive... When I'm done with the Subaru as far as suspension, brakes, wheels, safety equipment, I'll be right at about $5.5k or $6.5k depending on how far I take the brakes, and that's without touching the engine and making any extra power. Doing the same mods to a 911 wouldn't be that much more expensive.
I don't know, I guess I almost consider it more expensive to run the imports on the track just because of all of the suspension and brake upgrades necessary to get them on par with 911s. As for $ per hp, yeah, I guess that's a lot cheaper than a 911. I've got 90k miles left on the car's warranty, so the mods to the engine I'm willing to make are very limited to what can be switched out in an hour or so... maybe an intake, bigger intercooler, and an exhaust. Even that's probably around $2k.
Lol, still I'm happy my 13 year old 911 will give brand new imports a serious run for their money.
