its not a pos. im guessing that dudes truck hasnt had the turbos rebuilt ever. prolly beats the hell out of it too. how many miles does it have?

if it runs 0 to 60 in 4.6 seconds stock. with weak ass headers. all u gotta do is upgrade the headers. and whammo. u got an even faster car. thats already fast.

the interior is stock slt jimmy interior. :l only thing different inside the car is the boost gauge and the floor shift.

it has a corvette tranny so it can handle the extra power. people change the drive train and make it rwd only, up the psi a little. add slicks. and it can do wheelies.

fastest truck ever built. you can get a decent one with low miles from 8 thousand bucks and up. i saw one on ebay with 19 thousand miles sell for almost 35 thousand dollars.

what shape do you expect a factory performance vehicle to be in after 14 years of abuse
compare it to a TSi of the same year with similar owners and abuse

i think the truck is a nice way of showing that anything is possible but it would look better with differant cars. nice body work though, probly took alot of time.
