You could put some transmission fluid in their and see if it'll drive again. :)

A SC 6176 use a P trim exhaust wheel, and the SC 6169 is a shaved down P trim exhaust wheel, both work well for bigger setups on pump and race gas. I would not recomend a stage 5 or T350 exhaust wheel on any turbo bigger then a 50trim. The GT37 exhaust wheel is a good option also, but its another normaly not listed option.

Did you check the battery connections? Sounds like an alternator/fuse or bad battery connection.

Eh, it's stuck in Iowa now, I had to get a ride up to Mpls last night since PTO isn't allowed this week at work. MAP is towing it up to Pete's place this afternoon, so the price of the car just went up about $500.

On the plus side, the car has a lot more aftermarket parts on it than I expected, so I should be able to recover some of that. Some of the parts I can use or sell:

Prothane motor mounts
Greddy type S bov
3" o2/downpipe combo, plus 3" catback
EGT
Greddy 24r fmic kit
Eibach sportlines with KYB 5 way adjustable shocks
17" silver wheels with drag radials (cant remember brand, but look very nice)
Stage 4 shep tranny (shifts so nice)
Eprom ECU so I can get DSMlink on my car
Spare longblock from my maroon talon
Holset turbo missing exhaust housing

79k original miles. The car is pretty ricey, only missing a wing for total ricer. Full body kit with sideskirts, all painted black to match (also have original bumpers for it). Indiglo dash gauges that can switch to turquoise. Also some interior pieces are painted silver instead of gray. Also huge windshield sticker for dragsource.net, and one on the back bumper.

The flickering idiot lights sounds like a dying alternator. The same lights were doing that on my car last summer, so I replaced the alternator which fixed the problem. Doesn't really seem to make sense in my mind that the laternator caused the clunk and stopping of the engine though. Sounds like the engine died.
