|
|
Something is deadly wrong In this FIRST picture. I won't give you to much detail (better view). It's NOT the engine... it's close to the turbo... way to close.
Engine is a 2.5L 08 Lega XT 255hp Subi. It's CAN BUS and as Immobilizer.
More info coming soon.

Maybe good in a front engine car with a hood scoop but how the hell does it not heat soak without a stream of cool air moving over and through it mounted at thr back of a vanagon? _________________ Yeah, cars and stuff. |
