Last I heard it never ran right, had issues with a few things ecu and tuning wise. I'm not sure where he left off with it.

It could be made to work but IIRC the OP is a college kid so I am sure funds are limited so at some point you just have to move on.

"Car has no problems"

Did you read that line in the ad? possibly the reason it's not for sale here is because we know what the deal is...

Hey Guys!!!

Long time no update, I apologize. The car has been slowly but surely coming together, started out having problems with ecu, got that replaced, had to weld my intercooler piping, had heating problems so I had to have some things re-routed, new turbo blanket, heat shield, and am actually almost done. Fingers crossed! I had it tuned about 2 weeks ago and it only made 250whp due to my stock ignition so I am currently getting my ignition upgraded and will be finally done!

Well not done.... but for the most part.

Enjoy a dyno run until I post the rest of them.
Car is running great now, I was going through some stressful situations with the car on top of school and work but I decided to keep it.

It never seems to be "done" with most of these installs . Good luck with the new coils though

Well, it's never done, there are always things to improve on since there is no comprehensive kit. For me it's aesthetics at this point, I am happy with the power level and drivability. I'm glad you stuck with it cam, I hope you get where you want to be.
