I'm in a quandry. I have a car that there is only one other one exactly like it. Add to that, it's a 99 and has 17000 miles on it.
That said, I'm weighing my options on "tinkering" with it, and to what level, as I'm unsure if I want to go the balls deep route and throw new internals in it, etc.
Part A:
So, what's some opinions on it? Having spoken to Dave at SOEC, it's unlikely the car will ever reach super collector status and be worth twice what I paid for it, that part of reality has set in.
Part B:
If I do decide to go the modification route, what can I look forward to with that? I'm not looking for anything monstrous, like 600 at the wheels, but I thought 420-450 sounded like a nice number (which is probably 150-200 more than it is stock).
Obviously, we're talking about new pistons, rods, etc, since I highly doubt the stock stuff will handle that for more than 2 minutes.
What about the crank? What are it's limitations.
The car has the Saleen factory SC on it (about 5-6psi if memory serves).
Since the car's in lock down until about April, I've got a lot of time to think of ****.
