I was taking out for it's weekly trip to the grocery store when it started to stumble a bit, which went from mild to violent in about 1 mile. Thinking the end was near, I had visions of Redd Foxx from Sanford and Sons clutching his chest for "the big one" (You young-folk probably never say that show). The check engine light comes on and I limp home and stressful mile. The code it threw out was 13 and 17. 13 always seems to happen whenever I
boost over lbs.., so that was nothing new. 17 is for the feedback system. I was planning on selling it very soon, but now I just want it out of the garage. This fix is probably quite simple such as a bad o2 sensor or wiring, big vacuum leak, etc, but I just don't have the time to fix it anymore.
Here's the skinny:
Black interior and exterior. Paint is pretty decent and interior is in
pretty good shape.
Paxton Sn 92 centrifugal supercharger
Vortech Super fmu
Walbro fuel pump
K&N drop in air filter
Stock exhaust w/ cheap mufflers from P.O.
new OEM front lip
side skirts
2002 Leather Celica Seats
cross drilled rotors front and back (BRAKE rotors, that is)
16x7.5 Mille Miglia rims
Nordskog a/f and boost gauges
Pretty much stock everything else
It needed final tuning in order to get the most power out of the s/c. I've never taken it past 5000 rpms for that reason.
The headlight won't go down and there are a few electrical gremlins, but that's it.
I also have a bunch of parts including a ACT clutch and pressure plate that go with the car.

More can be emailed upon request.
Anyone need this kind of project? Then make me an offer. The sooner it's out
of my garage the better.
