From that post, I suspect this is the most powerful car you have ever owned, am I correct?


"Built" or not, when you get to that power level parts fail more often. It's the nature of the beast. At the very least, when you have a high powered manual car you will have transmission and clutch issues. When you go to the next level of power, be it power, heat, vibration etc, you're always going to find the weak link in the car. Your car can be "built" all you want, but abad tank of gas or a hiccup in a tune destroy a "built" motor as quickly as a stock one.
