wow, i seriously want it, but it makes me wonder why he's selling it... sounds too good to be true, he must have blown something running boost... and hes running it really low, too. damn it, it even has less miles than mine, and my interior would look perfect inside of it. Not to mention those fold-down seats. that bastard

EDIT:: the engine bay is photoshopped? thats quite the let down...

if u were really concerned about it u could just call the place that did the dyno

either way... for the 3k its listed as EVEN IF the whole motor is blown u can rebuild it and have all the turbo shit already done and it would still cost less than you going and turbo'in ure car. OH and hes dumb for turnin up the psi to 12 w/out internal mods...LOL the shitty isuzu trannys can only take 250-300hp before they are shot

Wow... he needs to tune it better... that's running pretty rich.

Not really... 10-12 is about as high as you wanna go tho. Hopefully he has the E-manage ignition harness working... running that amount of boost with retarding the timing is dumb.

The early Isuzu trannies held up better... the differential gears are manufactured differently. I've personally seen someone dyno 315HP to the wheels on a 95 Isuzu.

man one day left and no bids what so ever. if i had more $ and trsuted ebay a bit more, id be in. too bad he couldnt move right next door to me and just let me have it for a bit less. lol!

I would LOVE to see 12 psi on the stock tranny/diff.

Car is sitting in my driveway. Its real, and well worth the $3350 I paid for it.

The guy I bought it from didn't know much about it, he had a local shop do all the tuning. When he first got it back from the turbo installation he had it running 9psi (with the e-manage taking care of all his ignition and fuel concerns). In order to get better gas mileage he turned it back down to 5 psi at the dyno tune, which would explain why its running rich, because they only turned the boost down.

Anyways it runs / drives great. The turbo manifold needs to be rewelded as it has a few leaks. Other than that it was a good deal imo.

When are we going to see some times out of it?

[DontPassTheFence]

Yea, times!!!!

[bobgagt]

As soon as I fix the manifold and hit the track. My wedding is in three weeks and I'm still remodeling my house so it may be a little bit yet. Squeezing in time to work on the car is tough but it will happen. I think a bunch of people are going to the track (the nearest one from me is 2.5 hours) at the end of june. I should have it ready by then.
