Quick update on my car!

Quick update on my car!
I had a bit of a crisis the past month. I went to look at a 2006 Pontiac GTO which was just gorgeous! I was VERY close to buying it.
I had a talk and checked my finances and we decided that was not the way to go. My car leaks no fluids, burns no oil, and is essentially at a perfect stage 0 right now!
I will be doing some SERIOUS modifications to my car including:
- Brand NEW Twin-Scroll 14T turbo (on order)
- Bigger injectors
- ECU tune by Upsolute
- 2.5" exhaust system
- 3" downpipe (maybe)
- KW Coilover suspension setup
Hopefully this will all be completed this summer/fall and will net me close to 250 HP. I haven't gotten a straight answer how many exactly.
I just competed a full exterior detail as well. Keep in mind this is a 10 year old car's paint!
Thanks for looking! Consider this my "build" thread!

I had had my eye on the GTO for over a year. It had been priced at $22,000 but they dropped it to $19,995 and I went to look at it. It had a few paint issues and it was automatic, but more than anything, I just couldn't afford it.
$20,000 --- GTO
$4,000 --- to get the x40 up to spec

Alas, the time has come for me to part ways with my S40.

My wheels will go up for sale soon. Please feel free to get in touch with me by PM if you are interested in anything. If anyone in the midwest is interested in buying the whole car do not hesitate to PM me.
I will still stick around as mod as long as tech will still have me.
Thanks.
