I forgot to mention. This car will have NO PROBLEM hitting that 1k mark. If I don't sell it soon I will have it tuned on C16 myself.

Been for a ride only on 10psi and wow, now I've already called him and tried to convince him not to sell, but I guess it's not going to work.

The car had a few issues I ended up ironing out. The car is all ready to go I actually drive it everyday as my daily driver. Contact me through email as I'm going on vacation and my phone won't work up in the mountains but I should be able to get internet from my dads pc. [email protected]

Its running pump gas right now. Good for about 600rwhp. It gets about 8mpg with me driving. I have a rather heavy foot. When I lay off boost it does much better around 12.

Want a 03 Cobra for trade? Nice car though. I looked at it when the previous owner had it.
I don't mean to bad mouth but the car was in poor shape when I came into possesion, looked fixed up for a quick sale. I've gone through the entire car front to back. The next person will be very pleased. I'd consider trades but I'd need cash for pay off on my loan.

I want to clear something up, I've gotten lots of emails about the tranny. I RECEIVED THE CAR WITH A BLOWN TRANNY. I repaired what was broken when I recieved it. The car was NOT pushed hard by me. It would be almost impossible considering the first 2k miles I owned it I had only 4 of my 6 gears. I've put maybe 400-500 miles since I put the clutch... All break in miles. Again its hard to beat on a car while your breaking it in.

The car is unbelievable. Whoever buys this car has saved themselves at least 50% on the cost it'd take them to build it themselves.

This is John Armstead. I am the guy that boostedtoy was telling you about. I knew the car when he had it. I never got to see it in person but i knew about it. He sent me some pictures of it when he had it but he said it has different rims on it now. Regardless, I want to see a video of the car that is showing pulls on the interstate. I don't care about seeing a 1000hp dyno. That would be great, but I really don't care about it. I want to see a video of the car doing pulls on the interstate at 18-20psi. I'm not buying the car on the potential it has at 8-10psi. I want to see results of what it can do on the street/highway at 20psi. I will shoot you a PM with an initial offer once you get a video up . I looked at the video a few times on that other post, but it doesn't show me what I am looking for. You don't need to go throw it on the dyno to impress me. I already know it makes some numbers. I want to see what it can do on the pavement. I wish I lived closer so I could come drive it, but that isn't feasible because I live 18 hours away from you. thanks, John.
