I wonder how many seconds it will make that 1100 HP...

"Previous owner let it sit for 2 years before fixing it as shown in the history report. CA law states if it sits that long it considered "salvage" when it comes back in for registration." I can say I know a bit about California vehicle laws, and I've never heard of this one.

Seller failed to mention that the car sat at the bottom of a lake in those two years...

Yeah, but look at all of that old-growth lumber that comes from the bottom of Lake Superior these days...

Sometimes just sitting can cause corrosion, especially if the car gets wet...

He does run twice that boost pressure, what he means is 28lbs of boost PER turbo. This is a twin turbo, hellooooooooooooo, do the math...
