93 eagle talon awd. So from what i was told the block has new rods and pistons. Also stage 2 cams with 3 angle valves if thats indeed what was sayed. It has afc, a electronic boost controller not hooked up. The bad wiring all over the place dodge stealth maf recurculating bov with no recurculation i do not know if it is needed but from what i know it should. Wires hanging dont know were they go the safc does not turn on he sayed wiring problem. Now the a/f guage was showing lean and black smoke from rear and light black smoke from the engine was also outta gas (fml) no test drive to see if moves im sure it does no tags were on it either. the power sterring pump inlet im guessing bolt blew off and shot power sterring fluid everywere. Windshield cracked paint faded missing some interior parts. He is wanting 3000, now is it worth it or no?

Nay! It always good to buy a car stock, so you know that the car has not been tempered with and you can fix it how you like it. You know what's been installed, because anyone can say I got this and that, so I can sell you a car. That's why I bought my car bone stock except for the front mount intercooler.

nay means no? did you mean yay?

I'm not saying buying a modded car can be a bad thing..it's just a bad thing for new DSM owners.

For example, when I bought my Spyder GST, the guy only told me there was a boost gauge, exhaust, intake, and pacesetter header. What he DIDN'T tell me was that the turbo was swapped with a 14b (didn't mind that), the ECU harness was hacked to all hell,had a 1g recirc'd BOV (awesome), and there was a Walbro 255 in the tank (not bad either, but no FPR and with stock injectors). Car only lasted me 4 months before trashing the bottom end.

that doesnt sound good at all. when you know the guy and or you know the people who have worked on it or know of them and their work then that is where i fell into getting mine last night.
