Blowing the fuse, means you have a short somewhere.

$3800 is a lot of money to spend for a 420a.

are all the receipts with the car? and can he prove that everything listed was done?

also we need some pics.

and what is he using to tune it.

Yea thats a lot for a 420a. I bought my GST for less than that. Make sure all the receipts are there.

Yeah I have the receipts and all that. I bought it from Grease Monkey here in Hagerstown. I talked to the guy who owns the shop and he explained what all was done along with the proof. I can't upload any pictures yet because the internet I use isn't fast enough, in time I can though. It's no doubt the cars fast and seems to be built right, but without a 4g63 motor in it, I gotta get as much info as possible. To me building a 420a is worth it but to others I just keep getting the ol' "buy one that's already turboed". I have a 90 talon tsi in west virginia so I need something different.
