Also from the sounds of it, its your DD? Because thats what im looking for, I know some people put new built engines in evos that cant go more than 50 miles at a time because they are strictly short distance cars and drag cars.

If it somehow takes me a long time to sell my car, ill be in chicago in may for the bosnia soccer game, and at that point would just drive it back to the northwest.
It's a built 2.0 liter. I heavily debated in my mind which I wanted and they both have their ups and downs. Ultimately, I wanted an extremely reliable DD that had potential to be an absolute monster should I choose. The only perks of a 2.3 is more low end torque which results in slightly better seat of the pants feeling, but as a trade off you lose engine longevity and the engine will really struggle with reliability if pushed past 700ish horsepower. Despite stroker motors feeling faster, the 2.0L will always be faster on the street as it can rev much higher. The engine in my car will rev to 10,000 without breaking a sweat, although I have the rev limiter currently set at 9,000RPM and never really come near it since I honestly don't feel the need when spirited driving on public streets. At it's current tune, this engine shouldn't give you any issues for 100,000 miles as to where I'd be weary of a stroker that has 35k+ miles without a freshen up. I'm only running 28lbs of boost right now and the engine can easily handled nearly twice that.

Does that answer your question?

With summer right around the corner, I don't foresee this lasting much longer. Going to throw the car up on AutoTrader/eBay and hope for the best. Will have a walk around video up of the vehicle sometime this week too so potential buyers can see startup, idle, exhaust sound, and driveability.

Been traveling quite a bit lately and haven't had time to get things together for the car. My schedule for the summer is going to be quite busy, so I won't even be able to enjoy this. It's time for a new home! Make me a reasonable offer and let's make a deal!

New Pictures and Video:

I apologize in advance for the car being a bit dirty, was a last minute thing for a potential buyer and figured I'd share with the rest of you.





















Video:

Idling:


First in car: Tried to capture the sound of the BOV and in car noise. It's drastically louder in person and the BOV is really prevalent even with the windows up.


Didn't actually go WOT until about 20MPH. I've never launched the car nor do I ever plan on it. Everything is there for it to handle launches, I just have no interest in doing such. I'm more of a spirited driver/highway pull type



The puff of black smoke is merely from me hitting the rev limiter in first. Wanted to show what happens should you hit the rev limiter since it's extremely easy once the car hits boost if you aren't ready for it. No surprises for any buyers, I'm throwing it all out there. The car is tuned very, very conservative as you can tell.

I apologize for the pictures, going to rectify the situation with photobucket or get them rehosted asap! I'm going to be showing the car all weekend, so if you'd like to come out and make an offer, let me know!
