    No kidding!

    I've found a guy off probetalk parting out some turbo goodies, unfortunately he's up in Edmonton. He told me to bring cash and meet him on some dark side road late at night, just north of red deer...

    I'm going.

    If I don't reply in 24 hours, assume the worst. His user name on PT is "2high psi" I assume thats enough info for beyond members to have his address, SIN #, d.o.b and mothers maiden name fairly quickly.

    I'm back with the goods... there's more but I'm to lazy to move it indoors.



    Turbo + headers, piping
    FMIC + piping
    OBX wastegate
    Blow off valve
    Underdrive pulley (not sure if I'll use)
    Tapped oil pan and lines
    Colder sparkplugs
    HUGE tach (not sure if I'll use)
    King 6 motor mounts.
    Another transmission
    Coilpacks


    What did it all cost?! Did I just blow the budget?!?! nope, got it all for a steal @ $550 not including transmission cost as I will only add that if I use it

    This looks awesome, I thought I was getting a deal when I got a 16v engine for my mkI VW. I'm definitely envious

    Good thing you told everybody what he paid for it, apparently he hates low ballers and only wants $1700 more than he paid for it!

    Ya I feel bad for posting the price now, but he knew all this was going up on the webz, the market will decide ultimately the value of the car.

    On the flip side, he sold the engine for $400 as he cracked the distributor so thats a hell of a deal if you ask me.

    As for me I'm still going ahead as planned just the weather is throwing a bit of a damper, I've started pulling the engine, sized up the intercooler and it's WAAAY to big apparently it's rated for like 700hp. I would prefer one that is a bit shorter - maybe 2" thick with 2.5 outlets, that monster is 3" thick with 3" outlets

    Glad to see you made it back from Red Deer alive. Have you installed the H&R's yet? I've driven two cars with them equipped (an '03 Lancer and a mazdaspeed 3) and all I can say is that they are hardcore. They corner so flat and so sharp, they really do completely transform a car. My only woe is that they were (on both cars) a tad too low for daily driving, even half an inch up would have been great.
