too bad it's performance was garbage.




this poor guy put like 30 or 40k into this motor and he'll have a hard time getting 15 for it.


looks like it was for a boat or sandrail.

some R.U.B. car collector will drop the cash watch
so true 57's arent the best known performers
and 8 turbos yuk

a pioneer of twin turbos was a wills gasser back in the early 60's they spun the flywheel off when they figured how to tune it right!

turbos and superchargers are fun but not worth it unless you got cash to maintain them

Wait, r u serious? 1st off, its kindof tough for a motor to have weak performance. i mean, a 2.4l I4, yeah, but a twin turbo 6L V8 w/ nitrous (if i recall correctly)... weak? i think not.

depending on the setup its strapped into, it could easily be a 8 probably 7 second car. that motor is probably good for 1500hp at least! weak? you've been hanging on scion forums too much! lol , j/k..

dude probably won't GET 17k, thats just what hes asking. then again, he might get 17k from the right buyer.
