Talking 6.7 second from 0-60 for a 88 n/a car????

I found this, and look what it says:

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/car/126710145.html

175HP for 88 GXL, and 0-60 in 6.7 seconds????

man, if that is true, all T2(include FD) owners should trash their cars to junkyard for this. hahaha.

just want to share with you all about this.

that is more like what a Turbo would do in 88, and even more doubtful that with the only mod listed is exhaust that he or she could do that.

Matt, we should place a bid with him, then let him to test drive the car for us(otherwise, he will blame on the driver). if >7 second, we take the car away for FREE, if <6.7 seconds, we buy his car.

There are probably a bajillion "Rotary Performances"

I love how all of his mods just add weight, save the exhaust. I feel bad for whoever ends up buying that.
