    It doesn't run, but it runs, but it doesnt drive? But it will run with a bumper cover?

    Since it doesn't have a title, I'll give you $350 and come get it this weekend. Let me know.

    It does run it doesnt drive the it leaks trans fluid as fast as you dump it in. Im working on the title he just needs to apply for a duplicate he lost it in the move that will take a few weeks in mn at most to get. As far as the 350.00 offer your welcome to pick up the stock wheels and tires for that price id even give you a 200.00 discount if you got them this weekend...

    That's highway robbery on some wheels and tires.

    Are you the one who built it? How many miles are on the turbo kit? Who tuned it? Any shaft play in the turbo? Does the car burn or lose any oil?

    I guess that answers the question of who installed the turbo kit. Notice how the question of who tuned it is unanswered still.

    Wow... Even @ the asking price it's good for parts. Gotta think, it's a MN car. MN is NOT a weather friendly state... All that bare metal will rust QUICK!!! My brake caliper has 1000 miles on it in TN and it looks as bad as some of the parts in his engine bay. Also, all the pot metal pieces (output housing on the turbo, throttle body, ect) will look like crap once some moisture gets on it if not wiped down or protected to begin with.

    The turbo kit new is $3,100 plus shipping (3800performance.com)... AND it comes with a tuned PCM out of the box. With this said having a cookie cutter tuned PCM and no intercooler I'm guessing the HP rating seems legit to... Even if the turbo has shaft play, if a $2,000 - $2,200 offer was accepted one would still come out ahead.
