Default By the way

For those of you that knew, as I was trying to keep it a suprise and then post pictures when it was ready.... the twin turbo peices I have are being sold next week. I dont have the time, money, or energy to do it anymore. I would have given all of you first dibs, but I have a local buyer that has been interested for some time now. Two in-fender intercoolers, two t-60s's, 5 - 5ft long 3 inch wide titanium tubing, and some other misc parts. So, so much for the turbo'd 6er . For those of you that I told, sorry to get your hopes up

I need the money right now, and I really dont have it to sink into this project any more.

Sorry to hear about you having to sell the parts man, but hey I also put living before going fast . Well hopefully you can turbo your Camaro sometime down the road.

Well if nothing else you have a BADASS 6 to begin with. And no one can tell you different.

Just take a few breaths and drive that thing some more.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about the Turbos not working out.

If you did work your butt off to get the money to do it, you'd have to continue to work a ton to keep the payments up, so it wouldn't be worth it if you don't have enough time to drive it anyways.

Maybe within a few years you'll get to try it again, or think of something else you could do.

Dont let this bum you out to bad. You have plenty of time to do this stuff later. Hell I didnt even start building my Bird til I was in my 30`s.

Yea, hopefully in the next few years i'll get to attempt to do this again. But until then, im doubtful that the maro will get many if any changes. Stupid money.

Just don't ever sell the car. If money gets too tight, put the car away and out of your thoughts for a while, but don't EVER sell it.
