because we have people EXACTLY like you, join every week, picking up pieces of junk JUST like yours, having goals JUST like you, and a budget JUST like you, as well as optimistic it can be done properly for cheap, JUST like you.
I'm not even exaggerating here....
Once all the BS settles, the amount of them that actually pull it off is just sad. like 1 out of every 100.
The best part? They ALL think they're special, JUST like you.

Either keeping it stock, or doubling the budget at the very least.
you have 2 grand right? get the cleanest most unmodded and unmolested one you can find, do all the maint on it and get it reliable and tip top condition, and save up until you can afford to properly turbo it.

I plan on putting more into it but right now if I spend more than 2 grand my wife will flip **** cause we just got a house. I was hoping to get it running with the 2 grand. Then later on get the roll bar and sway vars and all those bits

They are the most stubborn of them all.
They get mad, yell at us, call us names, tell us we're morons, and then they leave.
Guess what. They fail too.
18psi's advice is spot on. Find a car in running condition for under $2k. Drive it.
If you are budget conscious, a project car is not up your alley, and a turbo Miata DEFINITELY is not up your alley.
Trust us. We really ARE trying to help.

Probably 1 out of 3 of them are people that "have done this before with other cars"
