Such haters on this forum! You clearly missed that it's a 1986 turbo S.
Only 1 ever made. I have to say though, that the only thing on the entire car that I actually thought was almost neat was the AFM being relocated in the corner.

Son-of-a-b!tch. That ******* has the same wheels as me. And if I wasn't thinking of getting rid of the wheels before... Rare my ***, they were $500 on ebay.

That car isn't terrible. I love how all of you are on your high-horses. Remove the stickers, and the obnoxious colored seats/steering wheel its not bad.

Intake, full exhaust, head work, and it has some sort of tune. It has aem wideband, and SAFC2 so its clearly had some work done to it. May have an upgraded turbo(judging from the intake pipe).

The stance on the car is really nice too. Some of you are worse than subie/vdub/e30 dbags that only have a few "acceptable" modifications that owners are allowed to do.. :roll:

I went to a GTG last month, and actually HAD my AFM in the same location it don't work so well there... on it's side like that... It works, but not very well... my tune was a train wreck, but I made it to and from the GTG... and even did the drive!

I can see past a bad description, for a gem of a car.. I can also look past a poor example for a humble seller, but this guy either has no idea what he is listing, or is listing it that way on purpose... between the listing AND the pics of the car... too much to handle!

My MAF had died on me, and I was waiting for a replacement... stuck the AFM back on and retuned to make it to the GTG... AFM = SUCKS... AFM on SIDE = SUCKS SIDEWAYS...

Pic from the GTG

Sorry - wasn't trying to hate by starting the thread. More just flushing out a BS'er. I mean - c'mon - the guy uses the keyword "NOS" in the title and from I can tell the car doesn't even have it on there and he doesn't mention it in the body of the ad. In addition he stretches his horsepower number to probably at least double what it actually is!

The seller had this to say about the car:

"Yeah the pictures on the flatbed might not have been the best idea but we were getting it moved. Its not tagged or insured and the state of Delaware is strict about that. I don't have a dyno sheet the 500hp is based on all the work and extras that have been put into it."

So there you go, apparently stickers really DO add HP.

I wonder who was the bad guy who sent him the link to this thread?
