Buying an Evo, tell me if this is a good deal please?
i can take a picture and text you.i dont know how to post them.turbo oil supply line(from the head on driver side) goes down and then turns left to the turbo.fallow that line down and look at the transmission you should see the hole .if you see yellow its act, if you see silver its exedy( purple exedy twin),black-comp clutch,white-clutch masters ,etc.
What does it book for? I wouldn't pay anymore than 90 percent of what it books for personally. I got screwed on my 9 but when it comes down to it I bought it cheap enough that it should even out. Make sure you check the compression. I bought out of state and made the mistake of trusting the tuner of the Evo I bought when he provided me the compression ratings. Needless to say when I got it home and did my own testing, cylinder 3 had compression of 115 while the others had 140+.
Simply look around to see if he is selling evo parts or even ask him. Just ask like well im wanting to _______ with it would you happen to have anything that could help me get closer if i buy the car from you? That way you make it seem as if your not questioning the car just making some talk and maybe he will be like oh yeah i have this stuff i made x amount of power blah blah blah you know. If he doesnt then he may be telling the truth about it. You can also look at how things are done on the car such as harness clips that hold it in place missing bolts or anything anywhere things like that will give you clues. Those are the things i would do if it were me in your shoes.

What would y'all say a good compression for it would be? I'm thinking of just bringing a compression gauge and doing a compression test myself.

Sounds good, thanks! I'll do that.
Pictures would be great, worse case I'll just spend an hour to find it

That's what I'm scared of..
