In my perspective the decision between a 500 and 2700$(approx) spend is different.
Upgrade and selling i agree but so little time between the buying and the selling is awkward IMO.
I think Daw make good products but time will say how reliable it will be.
Ok. Your perspective doesn't mean that owner's aren't doing it.

I know 2 people locally that have purchased their 340is and are on their 2nd turbo all in the past 12-18 months. Bought a car, modified stock turbo, upgraded turbo, and swapped turbo. In a less than 2-year time span.

One started with a GC and went to a DAW, the other started with a GC and when to a Pure. One is already putting his car up for sale.

I know several others that upgraded from Pure/DAW to Big Boost/DOCRace.

Or you can simply ask the owners. None of them are keeping it a secret.

So yeah, That's exactly how it goes. It's not just our platform either. Every community is littered with builds that have less than 5000mi on them for sale.
