Anyone recognize this car?

I bought this car a little over a week ago from a small dealer in Edmonds. I would like to know who's car this was before the dealer got it's hands on it. The car appears to be somewhat stock but it does have a few mods. It has a HKS turbo timer and an aftermarket exhaust. It also has Helix cam gears and sounds like it has Helix cams which leads me to wonder what else is done to the motor. If anyone knows who's car this was or anything about it...please let me know.

Since you are down south, you should have English Racing give it a look over. They can give you lots more info.

On Friday I just picked a white 06 from the same dealer. One owner, I believe to be military but that's just a guess....car bought in Hawaii, shipped to California then sat for a while. The car is in excellent condition inside and out but running 24psi and not seeing the AFR makes me nervous. The dealer is paying for me to take to a shop and have it tuned.....I guess they have a good working relationship with English too.

I saw online the one you picked up, it's really nice. Mine was in the same situation as yours, super clean in and out and runs really good. Mine only had 68k miles on it when it left the dealer. And apparently it's significantly more powerful than my cousin's EVO X so I'm just trying to find out what other mods there are done to the inside of the motor.

Seen an X with a custom paint job, looked like a matte blue (maybe a wrap?) in the U District two days in a row now, on Brooklyn.

My car came from them. They purchase card from auctions. The chance that your car is from the northwest is unlikely. Mine came from southern California.
