Guys we have to leave emotion at the door and consider all the additional costs/potential pitfalls:
* tuning. There will most probably have to be an AM computer involved. Remember how hard it was to crack our ECU and that RRRacing were one of the only ones to do it - this component alone is approx $2500
* I’m hearing $16k from one person and $20k from another - with initial builds the budget and timeline will blow out!! Also chance for the builder to get half way through and say “it’s the first one, I thought we could, but it can’t be done” .... but I still need to be paid for all my R&D and time spent on the tools
*does this account for oil coolers, transmission coolers etc? These all add up
*our engines couldn’t handle much more boost as we run such high compresssion
* I’d rather give my car to someone that’s already put in the time for R&D themselves, not where I’ll be paying for it. Remember labor is around $120-$160 per hour... you do the math. There will be a lot of fab work needed.
dont want to burst anyone’s bubble, just trying to be realistic. Feel free to challenge me on any of the above , I’ll be happily proven wrong 😊
