That's not entirely true. The fact is, German-Engineered cars don't take well to tuning. Much more time and effort is required to make modifications work. ECU tuning is way more difficult than that of a honda, for the fuel and ignition systems are more complex. Sure, you label the hardware prices, but think: Do all turbo systems cost the same? You can definately build a turbo kit for a benz or bmw with cheap parts, but when you blow up your motor (like hondas and toyotas do regularly) it will be nobody's fault but yours. Eurocars require the best parts. Get the best parts available the first time, and have your turbo last the life of the car. That's how I build them.
