I do feel sorry for whoever forks over the money for that car.

I generally respect the work people put into cars, even if I don't agree with it, but this car is trash - which is saying a lot given that the start point is an amazing vehicle. The interior work seems to be ok (if you like alligator skin seats), and the wheels and other styling pieces are subjective, but the mechanical work is pure crap. I know high school kids who can weld better than that, and no self respecting "tuner" would use duct tape to hang an oil line 3" off the ground with no protection whatsoever.

I forgot to mention the interior. The interior did make me shiat out a big poopy. However, the mechanical work is ***. The overall appearance, yes it's amazing.

The turbos are about 10 feet from the outlet on the cylinder head, with the compressed intake air going another 12 feet back to the intercooler, then to the intake. They say they use small turbos which spool fast, but it takes time for air to move. And given their claims of 800+ horsepower, the turbos are at least a reasonable size - maybe a GT28-32 comparable?

Second, a tie strap is at least marginally better than duct tape.
If they had just run it alongside the block, it would be okay. Well, that and use a real attachment system instead of the 4 cent tie strap. The BMW should be much more professionally done given their asking price.
