Thats not bad!!! what kind of injectors are on there. Id do it d series engines are cheap and very cheap to rebuild. I know a fellow honda owner who has a hatch with same motor and hes boosting 15 lbs makin 285whp. U can use suzuki vitara pistons in the d16 there the same bore and there great for turbo!!!!!!! find them for under 100$$$

you may want to pay for a dyno pass with wideband 02 reading to see how the tune is-that way you'll know if this guy tuned the car right or not.

Otherwise that's a pretty decent price (assuming it's not salvaged)

its not TERRIBLE idk if its super worth it though. I picked up a turbo hatch, d16z6 JE 9.0:1 pistons, scat rods, and acl bearings, perfect compression, blox manifold, t3 turbo, JRC IC, and 450cc injectors, act clutch, del sol seats, car is street tuned and went 13.6 @ 105.9 This car has MINIMAL rust, seriously nothing big at all and i paid 3800.

is 9 pounds too much for a stock z6?

Also here is more info:

DSM 450cc's injectors
Tuned with Crome

Yep I can guarantee that when you take delivery of it, it will be in peak condition.. Obviously with any car if you keep redlining it and driving it rough it will break down.. It has served me well for 2 years now without any issues so I guess as long as you take good care of it...It will take good care of you..

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">What is the interior like?</TD></TR></TABLE>

Interior is clean

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Clean title?</TD></TR></TABLE>

Yep clean green title

What can you guys tell me about chrome? I have a laptop can I download the chrome software and view real time graphs of my car's performance?

Im almost sure you can do this with just crome. I forget whether its crome pro or the ostrich but you need something to do this.
