Spotted this on ebay, but sounds like he just wants to show off his "work in progress" hoping some rich guy will buy it as well.

Makes it even more of a sleeper.

 

I really don't think thats all that bad of a price for that fc. He is probably a member that knows he will catch **** for posting an fc above $2,000 bucks Anyways if I had the cash that thing would be mine.

 

wow, thats a really nice Grant GT steering wheel.

 

sleeper?? uhh Yellow??

 

Doesn't look half bad. A new paint job would be a good idea. As for the modifications, it seems the seller focused more on mechanics than cosmetics.

A nice paint job doesn't make a car go fast.

 

stock radiator?

 

mmm, 330hp out of the stock turbo?

 

not quite, he's upgraded the turbo wheel which can add 10-25+HP from what I've read. Still the OEM turbo's only good for 18PSI, but it may overheat at those boost levels.

 

yeah now way that power from that setup. Nice try. I'd give it 250 tops

 

stock ecu is the scary part

 

No, in it he made a claim he had 326 hp before all the upgrades, on the stock turbo. Ya, my ***.

I like the kink in the rad hose.

 

 

I am sure when it the cooling system pressurizes it pops right out

 

heh is that a fuel line going into his car?? just mount it on the hood like the hotrod guys
