Default what would you do

ok so i have 95% of everything i need to boost my z6, heres the problem the z6 spun a bearing
the plan is to build the Z6 bottom end for some boost rods, pistons yadda yadda yadda
i can pick up a complete A6 from a buddy for like $100

should i buy the A6, throw together a mini me and drop it in boosted stock while i build the Z6 bottom end or just wait and build the Z6 and do the complete build all at once

i just really want some boost and the mini me option seems like a good quick fix but will obviously cost more in the long run

boost it now, trust me, drive it at 8 psi for awhile, then throw in the built block, it will be worth the 100 bucks to be able to drive it for awhile

it depends if you need to drive the car everyday, if not just go ahead and take your time building the Z6 and use the $100 towards your parts

unless you feel like going without a car than why not pick up another a6
