At this point the only things I need to sell for sure are the wheels and some of the misc stuff with the exception of the mirrors. I cleaned up some of the plumbing as the car was surging at idle and boosting too high. The ISV was bad for sure. Now it isn't boosting above 5lbs. I am planning on pressure testing the intake system and looking at the DV.

17 x 8.5 and 10.5. No rubbing issues. Rear tires are 275 Toyo Proxies T1S from 2005 and the fronts are 245 Michelin Pilot Sports from 2008. Rears have more tread on them than the fronts which probably are only good for less than 5k miles.

I have seen that exact damage before on another car, and could not figure out what cause it.
I did that to a 944 once: was playing around on a mountain road and slid off the road a little, then kind of "launched" back onto the road. Sunroof worked fine, but as far as i was concerned the car had been compromised.
