Well, if that one shop would get off their ass :cough: (VIVID) and plan the dyno day we could see what kind of power you have. I'm curious about mine too with close to 180k.
Will have to wait until the dyno is back together. it's sitting at the new shop in pieces. 
BTW, when are you going to send me those pics? or will you just bring the caps to BOBA tomorrow?

I meant the engine... not the car, I gathered you weren't selling that portion, lol.

Ahh....My mistake. Well when the engine is done, i'll sell it hella cheap, i wouldn't have any kind of an expectation of making any money off it it. under a grand for sure (prob lower than that too). That is of course down the road now, because I have decided to go till this one is done, then get a JDM one and build it up, all motor:
-ITBs
-EMS ECU
-2.4 stroker kit (spoon)
-VAFC (unless the ECU can do it)
Am i forgetting anything to push 300+ to the wheels? haha. Outside of engine my plans are:
-4.77 final drive
-Amuse GT1 Wide body kit (sexy and aerodynamic, with underbody-panels) and tires sizes to match
-Was debating the transmission and differential setup like the Amuse GT1, which is a transmission and differential from a BNR34 Skyline
-A better exhaust than the Invidia dual-to-single hack-job that I have.
-Weight reduction: carbon fiber doors (most significant), basic item removal (spare tire, etc), carbon fiber parts that aren't included in the body kit.
-Lastly, a suspension that will embarrass a lotus (don't know the details yet).
That said, that setup should keep me happy for..................a year or so, before I want better, faster, stronger, etc etc.
My next car is a lotus exige with the popular Honda Type R swap, supercharged. :-D can't wait to get my hands on that. It is set on stone, the only thing in question for obtaining this car is time.

On that note, anyone care to give me 20k+ to make that happen? I'll even let you rob the bank for me. HAHAHAHAHAHA. just playing!
Sigh, as inexpensive as a turbo setup would be to get the same result (in comparison), something about that all-motor power really appeals to me. not to mention ITBs in VTEC sounds orgasmic!!!!!!!
