I see what you’re saying, and it’s not all that bad of an idea by any means, but why throw money at a project that he probably has little interest in when he could be putting it towards something he really wants. Another thing to consider is: You don’t have to build this thing into a 1000hp animal before you ever put it on the road either. A nicely put together H/C setup should give it the set of nuts you’re looking for in the meantime, so you don’t get bored with it.
