Me too man, me too.
Ultimately if it does 253hp/189lbft again, I still consider it a success, oddly (though, I seriously doubt that'll be the case). Reason being, now I know it's more robust than before and will not destroy itself in the next 5000 miles (again).
Also, I've learned enough in the process that the cost of admission is worth it to me to have gone through the process.
