Interesting.

IMO probably not a great idea for stupid horse power levels if owner wants to track it, the chassis will likely have some hard time putting it down with the short wheel base and tail happy nature - unless huge aero mods will be done like tyspeed.

I know the owner has endless amounts of money but I guess I don't see how this is an M2 anymore? I think you could get a random rolling chassis of a completely different car and do the same thing.

Even with tyspeeds crazy aero he can still get tail happy with a ps2 n55, so I don't think over 500-600 whp on this stock chassis is a good idea. You'd probably need a wide body kit for more rubber all around.

S58 swap would be pretty sweet...and by sweet it would be even better with the DCT. But that would be quite a pita so I'm guessing 2JZ.

Just kidding, Ken's work is probably done in house. But the insane level of teardown and rebuild of a brand new car has that sort of feel about it. |

Super awesome swap and build. Definitely an interesting choice picking the M2C chassis for this type of build/engine swap. Would've expected choosing a lighter chassis. Nonetheless, very excited to see the completed build!

At that price point for the engine and engine management it's definitely a confusing choice considering other options.

And if you must have an M2 but don't care for the S55 then why not buy a OG M2 and swap the bumpers? |

Hmm. Are you still gonna be using the aluminum strut brace, carbon brace, and the cowl/shock covers? If they don't fit anymore with that engine, I'll buy them from you if the price is good and they're undamaged.
