Default Built Up Egine

It seems that I will not be able to afford running a turbo setup. I had planed to spend about $5k, but I doubt that will cover all that is necessary. Does anyone have a built up sc300 5spd that hits mid to low 14's. My original intention for this car was to be as quick as an older M3.
Maybe someone has a built up motor like Hondas have JUN or whatever it is. Maybe Intake, Custom exhaust, cam gear, pulleys, light weight wheels etc...
But no NOS

Jim you will find out very quickly that the guys here are basically all about "going turbo"(lots of talk) or just Looks(show no go) but like. NathanWesterfield said check supra forums in the N/A section they guys there actually do some N/A mods \ more than just exhaust
also http://www.suprastore.com/supnanon.html has a stage 1 and stage 2 N/A upgrade.

there was a thread a while back on supra forums where a guy claimed to have run 12.91 @? he didn't say I don't think. if recall guys called him out and he didnt' ever respond.

if you do all the bolt on's and then port and polish, cams, valves, springs, retainers, and raise the compression a bit to something like 11.5:1
then you might get close to 300hp

there was also a site someone posted about the 2jz-ge built making 400hp or around that. just pics though. I think.

anyways good luck with whatever you decide to do.
