The plumbing is unique. They moved the power steering pump and ABS. Anybody know anything about this car?

Wow twin 16G's... Those aren't very big, neither are the Talon intercoolers. Looks like the owner spent alot of money for a car that will be severly limited in potential. I like the plumbing though, the intercooler piping mating to the TB is kinda neat!

twin 16Gs probably offer 600+ flywheel hp potential. He might not be looking for anymore than that.

Roughly 500 to the tires with a twin turbo would leave me wanting more, thats for sure!

Good for you. Have anything useful to contribute since you know so much about it?

Yah, that thing's been on the SDS EFI site for years. Don't know much about it. I'm sure its got bigger turbos on it by now, with all the custom work done to it. That may have just been an interim setup...spend the money on the headers motor and tubing for now, and then upgrade intercoolers and turbos later... Its not exactly one of those junkyard setups where you make brackets to bolt onto the stock exhaust manifolds and use rubber hose for the boost piping....there was some coin spent
