You are not going to track that frozen blue paint enough to get any value out of the stroker engine. I can see you are really excited about this concept, but it makes no sense. This whole thread is foolishness.
You make to much sense (please not in this thread). And doesn't that apply to most things that cost money, especially most any car?
And will his kid do the same?

There is no common sense for this project and it isn't a criteria. Activities along this line are driven by something beyond sense.

He is making a dream a reality (one of my dreams) and if it works out, I may make a way to follow suite but I won't wait till i amass massive money.

But your car is not a limited frozen blue model, it's the same AW (on fox red?) that everyone is beating up on a track or rough mountain roads. He geuninely could not benefit from the stroker engine without beating the hell out of the car he said he wanted a to leave as a legacy for his kid.

If he can get a 20% annual return his kid gets a ferarri for his 16th birthday instead of an 18 year old tinkered m3. (taxes schmaxes, naysayers!)

How does one achieve a 20% annual return on investments?
