Especially if all he wants is ~500whp for daily driving it seems like a waste and could cause more headaches. A good tune, install and boost controller would be an overall better investment where he can drive daily on a lower boost setting and then turn it up for fun runs. Plus in 5 years time he might be onto a new car, different path with the Z, or something else and the built motor was a waste.

I understand where your coming from that's the reason I said your post was a little bit misleading. What your saying here is very true good install and a tune can go a long way.

It comes down to if he is going to be driving him self crazy worrying if its going to blow up or not then build it.
