IT RUNS!!! - My 500whp build - Element motor and Moore Performance Twin Scroll Kit! by dexterous

3 minute(s) of a 312 minute read

So here's the tentative schedule for my car. This really hinges on the turbo vendor sticking to the schedule that they promised me. They seemed really confident so I guess we will see. Beyond the turbo arriving when its supposed to, I really need the car to behave so that's the second big thing that has to work out as planned.

Monday July 18th - Turbo arrives at vendor for a rebuild
Wednesday July 20th - Turbo gets shipped back to me via overnight shipping
Thursday July 21st - Turbo arrives at my house and gets reinstalled
Saturday July 23rd - Car goes on display at Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix (Subaru booth)
Friday July 29th - Car goes back to Element for another try

No joke, the original price of the car plus the mods on the car right now = ~$75,000.

Here's what $75k gets you if you are interested. Note that this ONLY includes the major items. I have actually spent a lot more on the car if you include everything.
