LOL.
Should probably keep on trying to get it to build boost in the meantime, though!

The way I see it someone could low ball him at say 3k and get back to life. I don't know about everyone else but ALWAYS bring a compression tester with you and Some 5/8ths sockets LOL. I think this car goes with out saying.

There is fail all the way to the core. It's got a preety green radiator also to go with that a/t. Obviously the seller never read a single thread on here.The noobiest noob that ever noobed. Haha
Edit
I also thought about ****** with him and sending an email asking what stage it was.

My NB is an auto - and it put 210 at the wheels no problem... was weird not hearing the BOV purge until I let off the throttle. Shifting was/is still smooth.
But it now has a cracked ring on #4 so I'm in the middle of yanking everything out. will have 6spd when it goes back in.
