I just finished final test driving on a Spyder with an almost identical motor built by Pat. We de-tuned it to 7lbs of boost so the client can get used to the car before cranking it up to "ludicrous".
Good stuff!
I'm curious to know what the price tag is for playing Russian roulette with your car? Probably more than my car is worth...
Wow...

Since the owner of this engine lives in Canada add another30% for the exchange rate and then add another 12% of taxes. Not sure if there would be any duty charges, but I bet this engine cost the owner near $20,000 Canadian.
That's almost Jake Raby engine $$$ territory. 
DANG! For that kind of money I could buy 4 replacement engines for my mild 1915cc engine if it ever grenades. Pull bad engine out, pop new engine in, couple of hours I'm back on the road.
