      Woman are strange things,
      happy to see you build as you will have issues that make you mad and say bad things about the build, but...when it's up and running and working well and nothing but good things are said, smile's are shown..game over!
      Now woman switches into jealous mode and makes you're life a living hell...finds things that are MORE IMPORTANT and such lies.
      Trust me 70% of guys know what I'm talking about.
      I for one hope it wasn't sold under these conditions and sold because he wanted more power/different car....but I doubt it was.

      Frank Stark ppl usually build for own reasons also. he probably built it for reliability and sacrificed power. and I'm sure he has room to up the boost and a better tune for more power so he was happy with the hp the car made.

      I was thinking this same thing. High Dollar, multi-stage build, non-OEM fitment swap, bumper to bumper rebuild refinishing just about every surface of the car, $40K thrown into it... yet has the vocal inflection of someone narrating a Junior year High School presentation on Dragonflys in Biology III. Who spends a documented (with receipts) $40,000, only to knowingly lose $25,000 at the end... and is just totally mellow like that?? Mellow enough to make a video documenting this epic Tire Fire of an investment using dollar bills for kindling?

You spend all that $$$ on a boot full of brand new top quality parts, have a mate to help build a nice little car (paying a shop to do that would have cost another $40,000), take it to the track, a few shows, and sell it? changing to e85 fuel and finding a better tuner than the guy who first tuned it, could have got you close to 500whp and if the engine was built and tuned correctly you could have thrashed it for many safely, the guy who paid $15k for that would be waking up laughing every morning.

You explained your whole project car story concisely showed us in less detail but covered it well. I added this to my favorites and liked it. Maybe i'll start a project car of my own but at least this gives great insight. Thank you

    Great build! Just in case anyone wants to do the same, for 450-500hp you don't need an aftermarket exhaust manifold, intake, cams or head work. You can save thousands by keeping them stock and just using a correctly sized turbo. The setup will also be more responsive too

      I thought it would be awesome to have a car like this but then I just got nervous driving it because every tick I'd hear I'd start to think "what was that! Do I need to replace that? Is something going bad?" Then worrying about people hitting it because insurance would only pay for the price of a stock 240. Maybe I worry too much... But I expected a lot more power too.

      i have the same engine with a T-35 CX Racing turbo and greddy intake. That turbo in your build is too big to have on the engine without an aftermarket ECU or stand-alone management. That is all you needed to make everything worth it. If I could do it all again I would just install a T3-T4 turbo with some 550 injectors.

    I liked it better before the body kit was added 8:00 . I love the original fluid lines the body had. The body kit added to much angularity to it. Its a "meaner" look but not as clean to me. You settled on 15k? man I wish I was more in tune with sellers as I wouldn't have thought for a second about just handing you 20k for it and tbh thats a very lowball number you could have gotten for it.
