How much money is put into each car? My wife would have my nuts (moreso than she does now) if I spent anywhere near that amount on my car.
I'm so very jealous. Like i've said b4, both cars are stunning.

Honestly, I am not suer how much is in either of them. The evo has a huge turbo but I don't recall what kind. It's a prototype that is from blouch turbo locally in central pa. Obviously nto the whole turbo, haha, just the wheel inside I believe is a new set up that they did. He also did the cams before the build and this time did the 5 speed swap from another evo and built the bottom end. It has coilovers, alcohol injection, and countless other things.
My car is all bolt-on stuff. It's disgusting though the price difference from car to car to mod it though. You can definitely tell we have a case of econ 101 with an economy of scale to the evo the volvo can only dream of.
In all, when you mod cars you just don't keep track. It's too depressing...and neither of us is done. You aren't ever done though really.
Thank you for the kind words.
