You might want to take a look at those. I'm not even a turbo owner, but I can tell that at the least, the radiator and intercooler look stock.

And your name, is that the cat from the Smurfs? (honestly, not trying to be a smartass or anything)
ive been told it is but i found this out after the fact... haha, i originaly went with this name went i found out it was the angel of death and destruction but every one knows me as the smurfs cat

Damn...you spent 11.5k on that?



Seriously...I would have sold you mine for 12k. And I guarantee mine is worth every penny of that...if not more.

ok so i email the guy and tell him how im skepitcal and this is what he tells me. OK buddy let get this straight right now,!!!! i painted the pullies black cause i wanted to make it look more stock, the intercooler was custom ordered to look and function like the stock one, but the core is thicker, same with the rad my friend has a rad shop and we took at fluidyne rad, cut the core out an put my factory end tanks on because the fluidyne takes where to big an couldnt fit it in the car, an u cant see the ram air itake cause its under the diamond plate, and most of the work to the motor was internal cause thats where the power is made, also u cant see the fuel injectors becasue they are under the the intake man which is under the intercooler, and im not making **** up, something u should learn from all car forums everyone on those forums always take **** cause the try to ruin **** for other ppl cause it makes them feel good and ppl cant do **** to them cause they can hide them selfs,

so please dont waste my time cause im not wasting yours,

and the reason i wanted the enigne to look more stock is for the whole ' its all looks but no go' and it has a **** load of go' so let me know now whats going on, if u come done here ill show u that its has a **** more go then any other stock rx7 i can get one of my buddies to bring his 7 here and u can go for a ride and that and then mine and then u will see!

I honestly hope you do not believe that BS. I can tell you with 100% certainty, those are factory pullies, the factory radiator and the factory intercooler. Post the guys phone #, I talk to that jackass.

that car is worth maybe $2k.



don't let him BS you, dont even contact him anymore, seriously just walk away from that car now.



And i can assure you that about 90% of the people on this forum don't talk out of their asses, and I'm definitely one of those people.



If you want me to show you what a T2 should look like with over $36k worth of mods then let me know and I'll send you some pics of one of my cars.

did he say what *kind* of internal engine work was done? his answers to your question seem really non-specific.



i think it looks really badass (though personally i'm not one to drive a car with such a nice paintjob cause im cheap, but it still looks cool) minus the diamond-plate cover thingies, but i think honestly before you hand him *any* money, i'd take the car to a respectible shop and run a dyno for yourself.
