Hey all,

Looking to buy a clean black or white, 5-speed FC with already rebuilt motor in NC/VA/SC. FC must be turbo, if it already has a crapload of mods on it - good. Budget is 6K, looking mostly for a car that's already nearly completed and pushing 300+. Not interested in something bone stock that will require a lot of my time as I have very little of that as it is. Thanks in advance, feel free to e-mail me stanportnov@gmail.com

People are free to correct me here, but I think that if you took a stock S4/5 TII, it might cost that much in upgrades (rebuild, bridgeport/pport *not sure what kinda HP #'s a bport can take, new turbo, new manifold) just to reach those numbers. Essentially, you want a car (assuming TII) that's been modded to a 50% hp increase...HP costs $$$



So, to answer your question...I'd go more towards 10k to be safe? Someone please correct me.

I know its not exactly what you are looking for but i got an 88 turbo2 with plenty of mods that is currently not running not sure why probably something stupid. only $2000 obo. at the least with the current mods and a rebuild would be good for fairly nice hp.

it has light engine mods ( TID, BOV, no emissions, FCD, other minors) all after market suspension (car was built with mostly twisties in mind), body in good shape for its age with decent original red paint, other exterior goodies like c/f t2 hood, s5 tails, etc.
