So it's that time in my life wife is pregnant, got a new job no more cmpany vehicle so yesterday is only the third time she's seen rain. Deciding she needs to go to a home that can give her the care and attention she needs right now. I work two miles from home and don't like the idea of that short drive on cold mornings on the car.
Quick rundown cars oil pump was going out at about 16k miles I noticed shavings during an oil change. Rather than just hope it was nothing I pulled the motor and sent it to get rebuilt. Now has probe srs pistons arp 2000 headstuds and main and connecting rod bolts. Builder said there was no damage at all and I was lucky. has about 33k miles right now. may go up a little. Car has a few minor issues this is the reason I'm only asking 22.5 for her. I've had 23k offers before the whipple so you know don't waste my time.
Let me see if I remember the parts in her.

Custom cooling mod with fitting tapped and welded to crossover tube.
Steeds cold air intake.
Sct ba2600
Ford 80 lb injectors
Boost-a-pump
Flex lines on fuel pump have been replaced with stainless tubing bent and coupled with submersible gates hose and fuel injection clamps.
Steeds tri-ax shifter
Whipple polished 2.3 gen ll
Optima blue top battery
Recaro xl seats
BBK ceramic longtubes
Have a BBK x with resonators welded in
Borla touring cat back
Ftbr front different solid bushings rear delrin mount
Ford racing differential cover
Maximum motorsports flsc welded
H&r racing springs
Maximum motorsports cc/plates chrome
Custom adapter I made to set the shifter two inches farther back.
Afs chrome reps. 18/9 fronts with goodyear kdws 18/10.5 rears with toyo r888s
Aem uego wide band mounted on single gauge column mount still have trim rings and different faces to gauge.
Accufab single blade throttle body
Cobra bobs shifter gaskets
Billetflow four piece pulley set
15 lb boost overlay
373 gears installed
That's all I can think of right now.
Extras include
Original Eaton with billed flow 2.76 pulley on it
Original injectors,maf sensor, throttle body
BBK offroad x
Mac offroad h
borla stinger mufflers (you can swap between the two)
Again that's all I can think of right now.
Car has always ran mobile 1 oil. Transmission is running am soil atf. Rear has royal purple fluid.
Bad:
Exhaust leak haven't messed with it bau I might soon
Car has a flat spot in the tune from ret. Maybe a vacuum leak. Either way I was planning to take it to st racing for a retune but it's now for sale. Fine after it warms up.
Also sometimes when I come to a stop the car dies. I haven't got around to changing out the iac yet my guess is that's all it is. Tires have a few grand left.
Drivers seat upholstery keeps popping out behind seat. Not broken fasteners just come loose.
stereo and amp/ sub setup stays with me unless you pay me extra. have original perfect stereo.
Good: car is one of the nicest out here paint is 9/10 because I'm picky interior is 9.5/10 because of the seat issue. Always garaged.

Car made 549 and 56 torque to the wheels running a 3.25 pullied at 15 pounds boost.
Pulls really hard pulled 2.76 setup ran a 12.2 haven't ran it with the whipple. Will post pics in a bit. Felipe 951-397-9694 I'm in moreno valley. Socal. Need to replace my baby with another.

Exhaust leak fixed. Been driving it lately and must say in this 60 degree weather it's so much fun. Haven't had weather like this since before the whipple install.
