That guy is a moron and must know there is a problem 3k rev limit in first and second?? the guy is on crack if he actually believes that. if you didnt buy it what kind of money you getting it for cause it better be for a hell of a deal cause you dont know what kind of ghetto shiat he did to it

i wouldnt think vacuum leak i would check the grounds to be honest with you but as for a vacuum leak you can usually hear them when its just at idle if you listen for them just look there arent too many too look for....how much is he trying to sell it to you for?

you know someone by you that could come with you and look at it? i mean sounds like a good deal if you figure out the revving issues hard to just spout things out to you when you dont have the car by you and such it would be much easier just to bring someone with you you know?

yeah, it sounds like a problem in your ignition. I would check that the plug wires are right, maybe the condition of the plugs. is it an Si, HF or DX? if theres wiring changes involved it could be more.
