dandan Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 If that had a decent manifold and turbo it would be a great motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a bit unfair, that is a great car already, the manifold is custom and the turbo could be changed if you desire for less than 1K, but 600+ is not too shabby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never suggested there was a power issue. However there is no mention of what the manifols "is" and it looks like an XS type manifold which we all know are crap and it is a 4088 non DBB turbo which many people here have proved are inherently unreliable. If I bought that car I would have to be budgeting for another manifold and turbo ready for when either of those give up. When you say custom manifold...what is it? Also it doesn't look like any bigger turbo would fit on that manifold as the comp. housing is very close to the breather fitting? Anyway - I love the look of the car....bright but strangely understated. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
