Nothing is wrong with them I guess, and can make great power. However, pulling the engine every time you want to do anything kinda gets old. Plus VG's don't sound that great.. imo.

They are. Really no different than any other twin turbo Japanese car from the 90's. Plenty of people have gone over 200k miles on the original motor/turbos/transmission. If you can handle swapping an LS1 into one you can handle the cramped engine bay haha. Those cars aren't meant for everyone.
