If you have to ask you cant afford it. For me it might as well be a zillion dollars because I cant afford a $10k build. Just cant wait to see the results.

I would consider my build fairly "budget" and I'm well over $22k. I'm guessing OP is spending at least $40k with labor. I'm looking forward to the results.

I'm sure it's way, way, way more than 40K.

These are pretty much all custom parts. I would say one-off but I'm sure spyros has made more than one.

I hope no one tries to come in here hating and making the argument that it's a waste of money, for obvious reasons.

I'm in for results. I hope to see a car with these magical parts finally do something other than sit on a dyno and be talked about.

Good luck.

As a side note, WTF does it matter to any of you what he paid for the parts? I thinks it's rude to even ask.

I dont see how everyone is asking to see results? Do you guys really think the results are going to be bad? Clearly the guy knows a lot about engine set ups / tuning. He works with world race teams. Is everyone hating because a new guy came on the forums boasting about highest HP? I dont get it. Clearly he wouldn't be in the business if the cars they produce had no results. I think it has people flustered because he is not a long time member like everyone else here and could possibly hurt the Egos. Or am i wrong?

The answer would be yes. This guy/shop came on here out of nowhere and posted some magical numbers with really unique parts. As you can imagine im sure a few veteran vendors and shops on here didnt care for that. Lots of hatorade being spread on evom.

I do agree with David Buschur when it comes to dyno numbers--- prove it on the track! I like a fast car, not necesarily meaning that it has to hit a certain magical number on the dyno.

I'm not hating nor did I say anything negative. I said I am looking forward to results. I can put a 4g63 on the engine dyno that is 200' from our front door and make peaky dyno graphs that stop making power before 8,000 rpm and claim all kinds of crazy stuff too. At the end of day though OUR customers want to see some actual track results and to date I haven't seen any that meet the dyno numbers. The OP says he is here to change that and by God I wish him the best of luck and hope he does.
