well i bought it off a guy that bought it off a auction it was stolen and has been sittin there for like four years it ..turns on from what i have read here in the forums ive come to figure out it has like a ebay turbo / exhuast manifold/intercooler ... but thing is i need to register the car and because it was declared salvage after it was stolen i was told that i have to take to the dmv for inspection(what it says on the tittle) .... i really dont want to take a risk so i want to make it stock and make it run again so that i can register it... just wanted to know the basics about making it stock and where i can find parts and so on. i will daily drive it so i dont have to mod it right away...



so basically i want to get a hold of a stock exhuast manifold with the turbo and housing and buy a fmic for it....

any suggestions??
