Looks nice at first glance, then you see everything wrong with it.

yes by fitting banshee cylinders... saying its removed is like saying they removed the oil pump, yet its not like you can just refit it in those cyls. sigh.

A standard banshee makes 2/3rds the power of the YPVS. hmm...

I saw this when it first came up. I think the first bid was $5K. When I saw it had Banshee cylinders I expected the bid to be rescinded but it keeps going up. Buyer beware.

Yeah, im not convinced the new owner has done their research... there might be some disappointment down the track.
