did he buy the car new or used?

it's entirely possible if he got it used that it may have an aftermarket turbo. many of them either use the stock housing or one that looks extremely similar and would be hard to spot unless you really looked in to it.

98% sure he got it brand new! it only has 3k miles on it now and he has had it for a year. im just wondering when he did total it, if the people put all new crap on it. Might see today how much its making, going to see if he wants to go dyno it today.

He totaled it? Did he rebuild it or something? Instead of factory parts, maybe he opted for aftermarket parts. If his insurance allowed him... which they usually don't care, especially if it's cheaper.

Wilson circuit Time trial

Hey guys, its that time of year again. The Steelcity region SCCA is holding the time trial on the go cart track at Beaverun. Many of you guys kno all about the event and have participated before. For anyone new, this is the perfect entry level time trial to get yourself started on the bigger tracks. There are no special safety requirements other then a helmet.

So, now is the time to step up and show what you and your cars can do. It would be great to get alot of evo's like we usually do.

Cost is $100, and you do NOT need to work at this event.

Any of you guys doing flashlight drags tonight? I see that they are holding an event after the vintage grand prix at Beaverun. There should be a ton of people out there.
