AEM Box looks to be the wideband controller. AEM to use to sell controllers without the gauge.
Also I would sell my turbo NA for like 5500. Has A/C, MSPNP with BEGi kit.
So I think that asking price is a little high. I think for his car 9k would be fair. Just IMO

Not that this should be used as any indication for what the car is worth. $6k is really light for this car.
Most used, heavily-modified cars are that way, this is no exception.
$9k seems probably about right, or a little bit high. Link ECU is very outdated, you need a 6-speed transmission if you're going to make any more power, needs seats and harnesses and reroute for track work. It also sounds like when they built the motor, they did the muscle car stuff instead of the track car stuff. Should have bought a BE pump instead of wasting money on cams...

It's basically a car I'd build 10 years ago.
There are some part I missed that would move me closer to $7K. But as soon as I bought that I'd want a BB turbo, better injectors, better ECU, better shocks/springs, and better seats.
I'm also not factoring in the HT.
he should wash that thing before he posts ads for sale, that would bump me up even more. it seriously looks old and tired.
