Put a cover over it and leave it alone for a while and go do something else to amuse yourself. The desire will come back.

I hear ya'. This stuff can be aggrivating.
But, if you switch to a N/A and 'glide combo, do you KNOW that there won't be some glitch somewhere that will cheese you off?
In my experience, every non-standard piece that gets bolted onto a car has about a 50/50 shot of not requiring extra work. Unless it's headers... those almost never work OOTB.
I'd think carefully before selling. Will you make a profit on the parts you unload? Break even? How much money are you willing to throw away?
Just to spend $$$ on another combo that has a uncertain chance of having one or more things take work.
Your money, your choice.

Well compared to mine it is. I spent the weekend stripping paint out of my engine bay. Still have a motor and transmission that need going through, then I've got to fight with some custom brackets, fuel system, the list goes on and on. At least with yours you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, even if you have to deal with some annoying setbacks.

The starter problem is of no fault to the turbo setup. Finish it, then you will be glad you saved your money.
