Thanks David, I think you have nailed it on the head. Very well said and you make perfect sence. I didnt settle for a 4cly, I think in my mind I was playing it safe but honestly I didnt even look at it the way you spelled it out just now. I got my S4 and went crazy trying to repair and upgrade it to make it as perfect I can without a real regard of cost, I think many of us try to make our older car mimic the newer ones in some fashion or another without even realizing that we do it, but we get cautious about what the V8 will cost down the road, yet we will spend thousands on our 4cly to peserve or update Just ask me,It became an obsession which Im sure many can relate and I really think it might have been cheaper to have just bought a V8 up to this point or at least getting there,cause I keep wanting to upgrade upgrade and upgrade. I just have it in my mind that I want a 1999 or newer Esprit, but to be clear the S4 is a spectacular exotic which anyone should be proud to own
You say that as though you'll buy the V8 and just drive it... no upgrades, no improvements, no fiddling with the car at all rotfl
Incase you missed it rotfl rotfl rotfl
rotfl rotfl rotfl
I can see it now;
"Methanol injection to cool the charge, now an intercooler too, might need bigger turbos, need to swap injectors and remap for the added air, should probably upgrade the transaxle, it was already weak for the 350 ponies, I'm thinking some brushed aluminium on the dash and doors, oh, I need a better boast gage, need bigger brakes now with the added power, wondering if I can swap in Brembos... You know what I really like, carbon fiber, needing more front down force... "
I maybe way off base, but I know for certain that is me... :UK:
