I made 308 whp with this motor at 18 psi with no fine tuning to the cam. There is plenty more to be had on this car with pump gas conservatively. Car has not been abused and has only seen the drag strip once since this setup has been running. Motor was broken in before installing turbo kit and then tuned promptly. Turbo has always been turbo timed. I skimped on nothing with this car! I replaced everything that could be replaced! This is a D16 with a lot more potential left and not a b-series with a lot of miles that could let loose at any time. Can come with lots of extras including drag radials, ls mesh, a CLEAN DOOR, a CLEAN FENDER, etc. Read through the entire post if interested. $5,000 FIRM

pm me, it's something to consider...If it comes down to it, I'll part the car out. I'd probable actually make more money. You couldn't buy a del sol, build a motor, and piece together a turbo kit with parts this nice for this price.
