24 hours later and not one single post????

 

Sounds pretty nice to me. If I were buying it, I'd take it to a mechanic and have them check it over really well and perform a compression/leak down test. If everything checks out, I'd say go for it..

 

I notice this setup isn't sleeved, is that going to effect the longevity of the engine?

I'm sure it would be fine as long as you don't run really high power levels. What kind of goals do you have and how much power is the car putting out right now?

 

This would be my DD, which is something I'm usure as to whether I want to get into or not, not sure what it puts down at the moment

 

yup... get it checked out. if all is ok, looks solid. just don't go boost happy and u should be fine. you should be fine w/o sleeves... if the tune is good then all is good. if its not dyno tuned, the prog is prob a lil conservative which is not bad.
