I've been inspecting the car further, and the top mount intercooler is black. Why the hell is it black? Dirt? Would that impair the performance of the turbo?
It doesn't look like any other intercooler I've seen either. Its more of a... I don't know how to explain it, its square with a plastic lineing around it, instead of the Radiator looking intercoolers. (Note that the only Top Mount intercooler I've ever seen was on a WRX, and It was Silver)

It runs, it has a boost gauge built in the tach. It needs a battery though, I got it started once.
I'm $50 short, so I'm gonna haggle the price down from $300 to $250 so I can buy it this week.

Rumor has it, it has a tranny problem, and it needs about $1800 worth of work to get it mint.

Doesn't hinder my want for the car. It's loud and has a BOV. (Hah, I sound like a Ricer)

It's the only cool car, that I can get for really cheap. And I'm gonna fix it up and get myself into AutoX with it.
Although it's gonna be hard turning a junker into a racer.
I should send some pics into Speed Channel and get the thing on Tuner Transformation or MTV's Pimp My Ride (Although PMR doesn't do anything to the engine AT ALL and it'll still be a heap of crap besides the 350 TVs, paint and 28 inch rims)
