Re: My Turbo'd D16 is Dead
Well I'm driving the rx7 now. its slow as **** but is fine for a dd.
Just talked to my attorney...the paperwork is drawn up and will be filed today or tomorrow, and she will also be getting served in the same time frame. Hopefully this ---- works out.
Now I have a favor to ask to the shop owners/workers on the forum. i have quote on body damage and I have a lot of receipts on parts, but would really appreciate it if someone could write me up a quote for the damage to the performance parts. None of the local shops will return my emails.
Anyway I would appreciate the quote to include parts and labor to install, and the car needs a new intercooler (was using a CCA 6", a new t3/t04e (54 trim/ .63 with stage 3 compressor wheel...im not worried about specifics though.), a log manifold (d-series, t3 flange, 38mm flange), 38mm dumptube, 2.5 inch downpipe.
Thanks a lot

When the rotor take a dump, a ford 2.3 turbo is a fun motor to swap in. I had one that I wrecked at the track, and am building another one for a buddy right now.
There is a bunch of pictures of it here
