Sorry Javad if what I wrote made you think that I am not doing you
justice... On the contrary, I think your work is mighty impressive
and you should be very proud of it.
I am aware of the fact that your custom 034 efi system, turbo, etc.
are available. That's all great. However, your car in its present
form, is much more than just a bunch of parts that some others could
buy and bolt together. There is still a lot of custom fab, welding,
etc, etc... and I don't think that jumbo intercooler you have is
readily available for purchase, is it? Or that hybrid KH intake
manifold with VR6 throttle body? Do you plan to produce a "kit" that
one could buy and have everything included for installation and get
to where you car is? For someone who has the resources to do custom
work and fab stuff, and don't mind spending many hours/days/weeks making
things fit, then your car serves as a excellent example.
So, I might have misused the term "tweak and tinker", but I think you
get my point.

Invitation gladly accepted! :-)
