Default Turbo K20a2 VX hatch

I'm thinking about selling my latest project car. I just finished it about a month and a half ago. The only reason for me thinking about selling it is because this car is essentially done. I had my fun getting the K20a2 and turbo in the car and running and now I am thinking about moving on to the next project.
Here's the specs:
'92 Vx Hatch with 253,000 on the clock.
New brakes
New tires
16" Rota's
The body has no rust. The pass. door has a small dent that extends past the door into the rear quarter. The dent is about 6" up on the car and about 8"-10" long. Nothing big.
8 point cage with removable harness bar and door bars bent by Chasisworks installed by me. This lets me get in and out of the car (6'2" 215 lbs)
Stock interior other than that. I went for the sleeper look. I've snuck up on some vettes and camaro guys with it.
The only give away besides the cage is a boost gauge mounted in a chrome cup on the down bar. The cluster is stock. I shift when the tach needle is out of the red. (about 8100 rpm)
K20a2 swap with 3450 miles on it. I bought it with 1.7 miles on it, so the only miles it has seen are in my car.
Revo short throw shifter
Hasport mounts
Stage 1 axles
K-PRO
Hybrid racing wiring harness
Revhard turbo kit with t3/t4
Kit was for a 2003 si. Had to cut and weld a little on both the car and the charge piping. Mostly the piping.
3" mandrel bent Kteller mild steel exhaust with two 3" Dynomax Bullet racind mufflers underneath the car and a 3" magnaflo muffler out back. The car is pretty quiet for the 3" exhaust.
Walbro 255hp fuel pump.
Golden Eagle fuel rail.
Big assed aeromotive regulator. I stole this off my fi setup for my muscle car stuff. I has a -10 in/out which is way more than this car will ever throw at it.
-6 braided steel line from fuel filter to fuel rail to return line.
I am using RC 550 cc injectors right now at 7 psi, but have a set of 750's sitting waiting for some dyno time.
The car has koni blues with some lowering spring on it. Not too low. It looks good and still rides nicely.
Everything for the swap is new. No used stuff. i.e. shifter cables, O2 sensor, si idler pulley.
This car gets 42 mpg on the highway and will pull any Camaro out there from 40 mph up. Any slower than 40, the tires blow up in smoke.
I don't need to sell the car, I am just kicking the idea around. I have an all motor car that I'm thinking about dropping a K into. Heck, I might even trade the thing if something good comes up.
I have no idea how to post pics of this thing. There are pics up on this website of the car during the swap.
Click on the address on my bio for pics.
I have a bunch of money invested into this thing, but it is done right. It isn't a show stopper, but I didn't build it to be. I built it as a sleeper to screw with camaros and vettes. Vipers even with dyno time and 9 psi. This car could possibly win a guy some money on the street with some traction devices.

Looking for $11,500. I've got more into it, but I know I can't get it all back, so I am looking to get some of it back.

If the car sticks around, I probably won't have the time to run it until january 2005. I would like to have it tuned with my 750 cc injectors and put a clutch in it so I can use a descent set of slicks.
