way too much
well over a grand mate,excluding buying the engine but is all new so will be well worth it.
only thing i havent replaced is the turbo, im going to use that to run my engine in for a few thousand miles and then look at getting it hybrid or other options...

basically on the standard flywheel u have bolts to hold the pressure plate/clutch on.
on my new flywheel it has studs as part of the flywheel and you put a nut on the end.
however the holes in the pressure plate are too small for the studs to fit
