I saw that, but who cares what some old guy got power wise.

Probably means it hasn't been molested.

Chuck in a decent fuel system, and up the boost, with a decent cooler, and see 270hp ;)

Hahaha, i was waiting for you to see it.

I've emailed the guy to see if it has a compliance plate in the engine bay.

It should have right?

As I said, who knows what the engine has done to it, what boost it was running, if the ECU knows whats going on, etc.

My car has 186hp at the wheels, so what?

Turbo car = sky's the limit (within engine limits)

Why are you getting so hung up about the 'power figure' ?

Yeah should have a plate. It looks pretty mint.

If mine was that nice I would have kept the SOHC motor and just added bolt ons.

I enquired about this car 2 months ago, its been on there for a while he was origanally asking $6990.

Its got a compliance plate on the radiator support and he said the dyno was done by a guy using an old analouge dyno.

Some of the syncros are a bit worn in the box and its got an AU headgasket not too long ago.

Its got no service history or documentation to go with it.

Theres some info for anyone interested, was thinking of getting it as a project but decided one cars enough for now.

Yagz was implying he was selling his car to buy the Turbo EA.
Yagz has an ED Fairmont 5 speed.

I was seriously considering this car, still am, may check it out later on if it's still available, the single turbo EF XR8 sounds better though

Then I thought stuff it, and bought ebmanul's car ;)
