For such a clean dsm I vote you should keep it. You may regret giving it up in the long run.

x2!!

I would like to keep it!! I dont mind fixing stuff here and there but when everything breaks at the same time 3 days after its done is kinda depressing. And I dont have the cash to just rebuild the whole thing..

Well, then something was screwed up once you put it together..things don't JUST break. Something went wrong. Considering these motors are one of the best out there, I'd take a step back, learn what happened, and go at it again. Don't give up. Surely when you had the ford, you dealt with breaking parts constantly! ;)

I didnt put it together. I got the car then switched to e85 and got it tuned. It didnt make as much power as i think it should have so something probably was wrong with it.



yeah I did deal with stuff breaking and thats more reason for me to sell it lol.. Im tired of fixing busted shit..

I don't know man, if you have a clean rust free 1g that has made good power, I would keep it. If you don't want to break shit, don't run injectors that are more than 3 times the size of stock ones and run a 14b at 12 psi, not a 61.


If you're going to mod it or buy it modded, be prepared to wrench a lot more than if it was stock.

^to a point, yes. But, as of late, this summer has been nothing short of putting gas in my car and driving. I kinda like it. It's as reliable as YOU build it!

Since this is more if a discussion than a FS thread I'm moving it.

OP: if you decide you do want to sell it please feel free to post it in the classifieds with all the info and a price.
