Seems like someone enjoyed the car the way it was intended and looked after it.

A few more pics, I'm hoping to get to the track before the season is over. I'm planning on doing the diff, clutch and coolant fittings over the winter.

I do have the option of a leakdown & compression check, is this necessary based on the data from the DME?

Ty,

You can do a leak down or compression test but I think it is a waste of effort. 0 Over revs is good enough to pass it. And if you do, and it passes, it does not add anything significantly important. Peace of mind? What else do you need. Its a BUY!

I passed on the compression and leak down checks and purchased the car that day!
