Do you think once you finalize your design and get comfortable with producing them in numbers, the price will go down in general due to less labor time? Not any huge amount, maybe just $200, but idk because im not in your business and im not doing any business models for it. My thoughts are founded on base price of these cars today. Theyre cheap, and they keep getting cheaper. The markets being flooded with single kits, and everyones gonna need to stay competitive.
If you're wanting a less expensive option, chances are you'll need to wait for a cast kit to come out. Even though its log, there is still labor involved and a profit must be made and you can't escape all the name brand parts like the turbo, wastegates, etc that must be purchased.
