Obviously I´m not going to push it to the limits as soon as I get it, but I think testing it at the track will be a good way to get a feel for how it handles.

I'm sure you realize that a 700 hp camaro will be totally different than a 422 hp one. The turbocharger may be less than 10k but the mods necessary for the brakes, suspension, computer adjustments, and other small goodies will quickly add up. You may also have to alter the transmission and gearing to be able to handle the added hp. Cool project but make sure you do it right and do it safely. More power to you (okay unnecessary pun but had to do it).
