    It's one of those things "you never know". It could be fine, but then again, it could be in bad shape.

    I say, go for the stock 05.

    Ask yourself this: If I pop the block can I afford a new motor? If so get it, if not go for a stock G.

    How many miles on the car? How many miles on the kit? Why are they selling it? Who installed and tuned the kit?

    IMHO I wouldn't buy it

    NEVER buy a highly modded car, especially aftermarket f/i. only exception is if you know the owner personally and the car was babied.

    Seriously, w0 is absolutely right on this. If you want an FI'd car it's best to start off with a stock one and have a REPUTABLE tuner install and tune a kit for you.

    Turbonetics Turbos are somewhat problematic even when new. I would probably skip this one.

    you could get it and bring it to Forged and have a it retuned so that you know its the best tune possible. $400-500 for the comfort of having a good tune.
