Default I think I have had enough !!! 500bhp + STI

I am thinking of selling my STI as I have had enough of tuning it and never driving it ??? The car is in scoobyclinic at the moment awaiting its final tune. Mapping was abandoned last weekend due to the fuel being 6 months old but it achieved 450bhp at 1.2bar. and mid 500's is quite easily achieved once mapping is finished

the car is a 2003 JDM STI, with 23k on the clock 4k being done in the time i have owned the car (imported myself)

a brief spec of the car

The block is capable of 3bar of boost and was overbored from it's 2.0 to 2.5 and re-linered with high quality steel liners and honed for the (lateral) Wisco forged pistons giving 3 thou clearance. The rods are forged (lateral).
Bottom end is 2.5 crank blueprinted on ACL race series bearings. The block decks were checked and machined for flatness/trueness prior to build (helps the head gaskets to hold. The block was plastigauged on "dry" build and
ARP head studs, The block was machined and built by Chy Wright

The inlet manifold is by magnus and was purchased from litchfield impotrts,

The turbo is a Lateral supplied rotated hybrid gt30r capable of 550bhp with .82 housing

The car has an APS dr725 fmic ,performance friction front brake disks and pads, autronics ECU mappd by PAT deautchwerks 750cc flow matched injectors
turbosmart 38mm external wastegate,whiteline front and rear anti roll bars
full charge speed bodykit
prodrive pff7's 18" alloys

I dont have any recent pictures of the car as it has been away getting modified most of the time i have owned it, but here are a few that were sent to me via phone. If anyone is prepared to offer me £20k i will let this go. The car stands me thousands more than this and can't be built for even close to this price. I just think i need to move on to a car i can drive a rolling road graph will be available as soon as its mapped

Wait till its mapped mate and go enjoy all the hours labour.

Why put in that much effort to give it all up now?

Up to you fella but a shame after all that hard work.

After all the trial's, tribulations and effort that you have put into the car I'd keep it Steve, you'll only end up regretting selling it

Isn't the solution to simply stop modding it and start driving it???

Not sure why you are selling if you've finished with the mods. I'd be out there anjoying my money (at least for a bit)
