Congrats on an amazing build!
That will be some serious fun when you get it back, especially with the rolling anti lag feature
Syvecs can handle this sort of power on a stock motor pretty well. It has some excellent safety features relating to knock control, and fuel pressure/mixtures.
I run the SKI850 GT30 turbo's with identical supporting mods as you, including Syvecs. I run around 1.7 bar with pump gas and a 28% E85 mix.
I've been running over 1.5bar on straight pump for over 4k miles
With 100% E85 the safety margin is huge, and you have a lot more power/boost to play with.
Switzer wouldn't warranty it for no reason
Once more stock motor guys actually switch to standalone, the "guidelines" for max power on a stock motor will definitely change.

Yeah I can't wait, I'm really looking forward to the anti lag feature. Have you had a chance to run some 60-130's?

Just saying
I think you can get as good of deal from a dealer as from a private seller. You need to know how to negotiate well I guess?
Private seller cannot have factory Porsche extended warranty placed, can they?
Why is this engine warranty so hard to post? Seems like it should be easy to obtain?
How do you NOT pay sales tax by buying private vs. dealer?

It's definitely taken longer than I had hoped for, but stuff comes up during builds sometimes. I'm sure it will be worth it when I get her back.

Just thinking out loud here:

Yes, going private party you can not get a CPO, but I'm not looking for that I mod my cars. If your not going to mod cpo is the way to go IMO.
The engine warranty with my build?
In Nevada, when you buy private party there is no sales tax. It's on the Nevada DMV website. So without the dealer markup and sales tax and fees all out of the picture it makes more sense to buy private party. I did just buy a new civic Si as a daily from the dealer. Got 4k off msrp on a 24,000 car so I do know how to negotiate.
Like I said on higher priced cars like a 997tt I would go private party. On a cheaper car doesn't matter as much. Hope that clears things up.

Uh oh, I cant imagine what the "additional goodies" are!! ANy hints? 
At least the weather in the SW will still be ok with no snow when you get it back. It would kill me to get the car back and not be able to drive it.
