i wasnt saying that its from that particular company. but it seems that some people from the factory decided to make a single and twin turbo drop in before the company went under i was reading about how someguy n rx7 club found out that his grand fathers dm,c was twin turboed from the factory :P

well with only 20K original miles it's a bit pricey, but i like it for the fact that i'll never see another one anywhere near me unless i go way the hell out of my way to find one

got ya.. i'd rather just build a turbo setup for it then do a motor swap anyway though, easier in the long run i'd think, wouldnt have to source out the motor and crap which would probably take forever

i've driven a cobra before, my step dad owns one and loaned it to me for a weekend, thats the only reason i even thought about buying one

i know the diffrence between them and wouldnt mind the cobra but am probably gonna go with the delorean for the simple fact i stated above, plus i want a new turbo project

Why don't you buy the Cobra and buy an old Civic hatch to turbo :)

its going to be more than a project. were talking about a 30 year old car, with a company that doesn't even exist anymore and parts that would be hard to find and expensive as hell. vs a car thats 3 years old, and is fast as balls with a pully change.

plus you wont here
"hows that thing pull when you hit 88mph" everyday.

i've had a 30+ year old car turbo charged on the stock motor although it was built, and managed to find parts for that all over by takeing the time to look

i've looked and parts arent that expensive and are still available, i just dont want a car i can see 50 times a day on my way to work

a 30 year old what? was it a delorean?

You might as well buy a vw Scirocco. it puts out more power and its designed by the same guy giorgetto giugiaro of ital design studios.
