and yeah Steve I'm not sure why it's so damn heavy, but no joke 7000 lbs.

I can't stand that body style though, and I don't really feel like replacing injector pumps every 2 years

well if it has a turbo it clears...

besides, why hate on him just because hes got something nice, so what if it came with the turbo, hes still got a nice platform to do alot of tuning... with a few simple mods he can make that trucks performance miles away from stock, and thats what this site is all about, turbo modification in your own garage... so dont get your panties in a bunch when someone wants to show what they've got

Listen dude, did you not see at the top where I said I dismantled my turbo neon? I completely custom built that car- I won't even go into the modlist here, but it was definitelly home-made. This truck is an opportunity to start with a better platform, do you hate on people who show up with DSM's?

Psst. Isn't this the "General Discussion" area? Following what SinisterCRX said, there's been a variety of topics, hence reasoning for having this section. Hater!
