Looks like it would be a good start.

Make sure to looks for a custom header if it does have a TO4E Trubo upgrade. If it does not then the guy if full of crap.

$14,000 - 97 gsx with 64,000 miles on it.

It could be a TO4E compressor cover, or a TO4E compressor wheel like a 50 trim, and still have a mitsu exahsut housing and manifold. Just like all of the muts and every other bolt on garret on the market

could also be blown and thatd be the reason there selling it.. ya never know man.. Id personally never buy a used car that has all kinds of #@%#@%#@%#@% done to it unless I personally knew the person selling it

I agree with Larry, I'd rather buy a car that is stock aside from one that you KNOW has been beaten on. Its just wiser.
