3 years and 30+k later, but you will never be "done" and will always add or change things as you keep your evo.

for me the most fun is always changing things up, with a full build in process I doubt it will ever be done.

Just over 2 years with the car.

As many others have said its a constant change of what you want. Once you hit one goal there is a new" shinny object!" that you want to add. There will never be an end once your have the bug.

I will be done one day because i know exactly what i have left to do, but i just don't have the money to do it yet. Its just a matter of saving, buying, and slowly putting it together.

the way i see it, you can go boltons and stock frame turbo upgrade for some reliable gains or you can go fully built. im going fully built so probably another 8 months total of 1.5 years
