Tim is cool as fuck and has the funds to play. If he wants to build a ~45K engine and push it until it blows up, who cares… This car is his meditation from everything else…

Jesus, I didnt think it was that aweful of an opinion and question. But thanks for taking it offensivly.

All I meant was, and Adam I am sure you see it too, is just about every customer and especially tire kicking customers are so fast to look right at big badass HP as a primary goal. Then ignor or cross their fingers on it being able to actually contain the power. Its usually the low buck guys that would rather, for example, put $2000 into a big ball bearing turbo and massive intercooler to make big power, instead of spending $1500 on a built tranmission and putting a set of cams in for more power. I know I did it, and learned how much it fucking blows not having money and time to fix broken shit every 1kmi.

And no I dont fucking know everything else about the car. Thats why I asked the simple question. Figured I might learn a bit about some badass engineering behind some parts I probably wont have the luxury of ever holding.

sorry I even bother’d replying
