Okay I've sold it once before and thought it was a mistake, but it's just not working out. It's not her, it's me, I swear. :amen:

Ahem, anyways. I'm sure I'd be okay if it went to a good home.

Everything away from stock:

Intake
-'87 TII Garrett turbo (no shaft play)
-3" mandrel bent ram air intake
-3.5" APC filter
-TII front mount intercooler
-2" intercooler piping
-Blitz BOV
-TII 1 piece intake
-In-cabin HP Performance manual boost controller (right now set to 14psi)
-Manual cut out raiser

Internals
-Melling high volume oil pump
-Clevite 77 rod bearings
-New intermediate shaft
-New rear main seal

Trans.
-Freshly rebuilt A413
-5 clutches
-RMVB, line pressure set to 125psi
-Brand new OEM torque converter
-Perma Cool trans. cooler

Fuel
-Walbro 255 L/hr fuel pump
-FM adjustable fuel pressure regulator
-+20% injectors
-Summit 0-60psi fuel pressure gauge

Exhaust
-Heavily ported exhaust manifold
-2.5" crushed exhaust with a manual cut out after the downpipe, no cat, and a Dynomax Ultraflow muffler

Electronics
-FWD Performance Stage 3 SMEC
-8mm Taylor plug wires in custom yellow
-New cap and rotor
-RN12YC plugs
-New Bosch starter
-New MAP sensor
-Infiniti radio with 12 presets

Interior
-Autometer Phantom series 30/20 boost gauge
-No headliner

Exterior
-Reconditioned 15" Snowflakes (powdercoated silver) riding on fairly new Cooper Cobra 205/50/15's up front and 205/60/15's in the back

Suspension
-New heavy duty rear shocks
-New passenger side strut (hit a curb, oops!)

Misc.
-New power steering and alternator belts
-Removed the A/C and condensor
-Non A/C bracket
-New headlight buckets and bulbs

More stuff, both front fog lights used to work. The passenger side went out on me, so I had it replaced. Now the driver side went out. I can get that fixed for $5 and some time. Rust... now there isn't much. Two spots in the deck lid and some on the infamous e-brake portion, and a little bit on the opposing side.

The car has almost 111,000 miles on it. Obviously it doesn't look like it. It got keyed on the driver's side before when it wasn't mine. But I can get that fixed for an extra $250 as insurance will cover it as vandalism.

On 23" M&H slicks it went a 13.91 at 97mph while blowing them away with a 2.027 60' time. With a proper tune (it's fat rich!) and hooking up it's possible to make this a mid 13 second car. Put a bigger intercooler in and it will go low 13's.

BTW the in-cab MBC works great! It spiks only 1psi but settles very quickly. No problems with it.

I obviously have a lot done to this car, and it's in great working order. I'm selling it because I need money to buy a beater while I work on building a different type of car.

Okay I think that's all. Feel free to ask questions. BTW the car is located in NE, Ohio. I have over $2,400 just in parts in it. I'm asking $2,500 for it as is. Remember, it's a 13 second four door that can haul ---, groceries, and kids at the same time!

I just canned the deal so the car is available.

Deal fell through... deciding to keep it. :( I'll do up the 2.4 later in the year. For now, just a rebuild and a huge intercooler will work. Here I come low 13's!

I saw Rootcause and went WTF, but I guess you changed it over, :p

There were many reasons for the deal being killed but none of them have anything to do with his car. You aren't going to find many that clean anymore. He seems to obsessively clean his car.

You're like..wait..which site am I on!??! :)

Yeah, frank is quick on the draw... I put the request in like an hour ago and bam, its done.

I dubbed him "Boosted Admin" because he seems to admin at 32psi.

I dont own any more Omni's and my GTI ground effects are all for sale. I didnt see the point of keeping that username so I switched to my not-car-related boostedmopar.com name.

Right. I can rebuild it for $347. Time to get ahold of Cindy and get my pistons coming. I already ordered all the gaskets.

It's okay Sean, I'm not mad. Can we still be friends? :eyebrows: BTW I don't know if washing it every 2 or 3 days and vaccuming and cleaning the interior every day is obsessive. Is it?

I don't know about that... for some reason my phone won't let me talk to you. :confused: :D

Now off to the wanted section. I wonder if anyone has a front motor mount bracket for a V6?

Bryan, is the car for sale or not? What is the deal with needing pistons? Have some interest in it. I saw you said you were going to keep it but if you're like me that can change day to day. If it does need pistons ,any idea on cause? I saw you said it runs rich at boost (is there some change after you got the FWD SMEC?)

Well since posting before I've added a new grill.

You can even see the intercooler now. :D

Anyways. The pistons are on their way. And I think I've got a deal on a rebuilt TII Garrett.

So basically it has a rebuilt bottom end with Mahles and a new stock turbo.

If someone makes me a good enough offer, I suppose I'd let it go.

And yes, it was at Summit on Sunday. Thanks for all the compliments guys. I've put a lot of my life into this beast.
