Default Big $$ Build, Found on CL

Found this on CL local to me and figured I would share. Seen it at some shows, pretty extensive work into it. Guy rewired the entire car from scratch. Powerband looks pretty crappy, but would be a good base for an EFR or something. Either way, not a horrible price given the work into it.

that is one horrible looking spool. 200lbs tq at 4700rpm? is very sad.

price is not cheap at all, id even say quite pricey for the setup.

Not shocked. BP05 + FM manifold + big turbo + short runner IM = lolspool.

Looks like a rip off to me. Plucked straight from 1998.

Wow this thing pops up again, it has to be in the third owners hands now.
I should have saved pictures from the original owners posts which really detailed the build....quality as its life progresses is just depressing. :(

"Rewired the entire car from scratch" gives me night terrors. God help you should anything go wrong. Which it definitely won't.

I would not touch a car rewired by someone else with a 10-foot pole.
