Buy a car that has been ported and has a good exhaust on it. Drive that, then decide what other mods to do.
Heh, wish that was the route I took, that's more my advise after having done it the hard way. If I had it all to do over again, I would have bought the Haibeck 402 car that was for sale in TX when I was looking. Had built motor, fully ported, coilovers, big brakes, etc. Only issue was it was black and I didn't want black. Would have been cheaper to buy it and wrap/paint it than the route I took. You don't buy a ZR-1 to make money on it, you buy it because you love it.
