    Turbo Caravan 268 hp, lowered, no rust, NICE!

    Date: 11th December 2013
    Username: Johnny
    In Coos Bay Oregon 97420
    Contact: GLHS289@hotmail.com or call 541-266-0890
    Selling or Wanted Price: $3100. ........$2700 if sold before end of the year!
    Description:
    This WAS my van, sold it to my daughters boyfriend. He put a lot into it and really like the van. BUT is looking to buy a house and has way too many cars. (Over 20)
    I had installed a new fuel pump before he got it from me. I have the van at my house.
    HE ADDED……………...

    new head gasket and bolts, valve springs, valve stem seals.
    turbo's unleashed "tranny buster" gt3076 ball bearing turbo with the .63 ar exhaust side from turbonetics.
    3" mandrel bent exhaust system with magnaflow muffler
    2.5" intercooler front mount kit in aluminum pipe with t-bolts and good couplers
    Snow performance water methenol kit controlled by the ecu
    Wideband readout and boost gauge
    Standalone MSII engine management with antilag, two step, meth control and boost control all ecu programmable.
    Has new brakes new struts and strut mounts
    15" MB drifter wheels with decent tires on them

    Made 268 HP at the tire on 25PSI running pump gas and water methanol.
    Never added idle air to the ecu, so it’s a bit cold blooded.
    Seats are ripped
    Headliner has cloth pealed off
    Van is lowered, air bags in the rear.

    OWNER SAYS: It’s been super reliable since done, I drive it back and forth from Beaverton, OR to Vancouver, WA 3-4 times a week and it’s my daily driver/parts runner.

    Here are photos of the van.

    I can tell from the pics.. that pipe looks super sano, jealous. $3100 seems like a smokin' deal to me with that list.

    just for pure curiosity sake, could you get pictures of the airbags in the rear. Id like to see how they are set up.

    I thought about bringing it to the east coast but just can't justify the $1000 shipping. Or the travel expense j I flew in and drove home. Either way it won't work

    But if you flew in you could drive a Consulier GTP for a bit. ……..

    Yes, understand, relocation is a -----.

    Although if it was going somewhere and whom ever bought it needed a help getting it there, I'll drive... if you fly me home…up to 1000 miles.

    Coos Bay to Washington DC is 2935 miles . However, that's just under 3000 miles and can be done in about 23 hours.

    Make it a Cannonball trip and hire Steve Menegon as your co-pilot.

    You may even be able to beat the record, the back of a minivan must hold 4-20 gallon tanks at least.....wanna try it ?

    I also apprectiate the offer to drive the Consulier...I'm not letting anyone in the drivers seat of mine.....well maybe a few people but they must sign the waivers first

    By the way, the license plates have "666" on them. So this van's nickname is The Beast!

    I need to talk to the wife to clear it...would you trust it on a cross country trip? Maybe you could drive it to Fishers, IN and rent a car to go back....ONLY when we came to a CASH agreement and it made it here in good running order and everything hooked up so it is easy to start. What transmission? The 96 BMW M3 is now gone and I want another toy....I am turbo-less...and have been for quite some time.
