i agree. i helping my mate sell my old car at the mo. he is asking way too much imo so iv written him a crap add. works both ways imo. soon as he listens the add and pics will get better and the car will sell. this guy sounds like he bought the car like this and knows nothing about it internally but is trying the same thing.

thanks!

ste.

and his reply -

One thing I'm amazed at is how people sell things with such an amazing grasp of the English language :lol: :lol: :lol:

bristol_bb4 - yeah i asked him for a dyno sheet/evidence for the power, he just said he doesn't have one and then that it has a turbo etc.

Haven't you guys realised yet??? :roll:

He knows that you lot know that it doesn't have a Turbo.. :lol: He is just trolling back at you lot. He has been there at Japshows and know what a Turbo looks like. He knows that his car doesn't have a turbo but he is replying back saying he does have it to troll on you guys.

Let him carry on and I feel sorry for the person who buys the car. :mrgreen:

Someone should ask him to show where the turbo pushes the air into the engine, it certiainly doesn't look like an FI setup at the mo. Did anyone else notice on the listing that he doesn't mention ANY engine work, I'm sorry but if I sold my car now most of the sales pitch would be that my motor has had some PAW love rather than a 'heavy' sound system :shock:

Perhaps he has one of those 'special' turbos that nitin found

Whether he's aware of this thread or not, he shouldn't be giving anyone false claims whilst selling his car... That's called fraud :roll: At the moment he's no better than Turbo Timer.
