Dont Quit Noob

I am thinking of getting a 2004 Evo 8 that has these mods. The engine, clutch and transmission were rebuilt less than 1,000 miles ago. How many miles do you think this car would last as a daily?

The car has NO accidents, CLEAN Carfax and has spent most of its life garaged. There are a few subtle additions to the appearance including Tein type S lowering springs (Sportier ride with a 1" drop), JDM MR headlights and tail lights, a carbon fiber Seibon hood, and Defi gauges to monitor engine vitals. The roof molding has been replaced, along with completion of the Tekata factory airbag recall maintenance. The engine, transmission, and clutch have been freshly rebuilt with less than 1,000 miles since completion. A recent Dyno tune was performed with 1,000cc injectors, and the results were 571AWHP @ 28PSI on Pump gas!! Following the Dyno, Bosch 2,200cc E85 compatible injectors, a new Walbro 450 fuel pump, and a Bosch 044 inline pump were installed. The car was re-tuned with the new fuel system for 31PSI and pump gas which pushes this baby to 630AWHP!

It COMPLETELY depends on how well the car was put together. Other than that, you are looking at quite a maintenance schedule with anything making that kind of power. Don't be surprised if you have occasional down time. But, that's the price you pay when you are squeezing 600whp out of a four-cylinder.
If you're up to the work involved, I say dooooeeeeeet.
