Costs 7000+ to boost with out engine build - you wouldnt need to build the engine, the engine is one of the most stoutest engines ever built, good engine management, nice manifold and turbo, you could do it for 4-5 gs if you knew where to look.
Selling my shit to pay for this cost me 3000 roughly maybe less and....
I love fabricating and building it's my hobby not a chore. - thats a plus
I have a car that is extremely rare. somebody could mold dildos to a car, sure its rare, but it doesn't make sense
It's factory designed for boost thus more reliable and not 11.1 to 1 compression - thats where proper tuning, good engine management system, and everything comes together. Stock block S2000s that are properly done can do fantastic- a local friend of mine had a 700whp YouTube - 701hp S2000 From Hell-Part1
I love nissans and I pretty much have a sick looking good handling 240 now lol - 2 completely different chassis - motor doesnt make a car
I can put a new trans in it for 200 bucks instead of 1200 and new block for 800 instead of 2500 if something happens Reasonable arguement, though you shouldn't have to calculate grenading engines into cost if you didnt do it right the first time
Tuning solutions are cheap. - not a safe mental position to have, then again you'd expect to calculate your blowing of blocks within the cost
It's sick as fuck. invalid statement
It sounds cooler. this is also false
It has a torque (more then 6 lbs/ft like an f20c1) - does the f20c1 really have 6 ft lbs? Get off the exagerations and spit real facts, compare a similarly boosted s2000 and who laughs at torque numbers.

Let's all be happy and go do burnouts.
I have no regrets

I still think this is stupid
