I'm thinking high 14's if I can get traction. I forgot to mention front mount in my to-do list.

Where did you find it at, with those miles? Im not gonna lie i have a little bit of the green eye.
My understanding is that the person I bought it from has owned it (or people in his family have owned it) for the past six years. I'm not sure from whom they bought it, but the gentleman seemed pretty straightforward about everything. If someone could do a Carfax on it (for free), that would be great.

I'm certain he did not if his only mod was a boost controller. These are low 16-second cars stock.

With a boost controller? No. Well, I guess it depends on how you're using the word almost.

I've seen time slips for these cars with different setups and 13's with a boost controller, and only a boost controller, would mean quite a bit of weight reduction and slicks.

Anywho...

I did some bottom end work today. Purchased a new key and crank sprocket and am resetting the timing tomorrow or Saturday. Also, I repaired the rust damage on the hood (forgot to take a before picture, though) and resprayed it as well. It's drying in the "booth" at the moment.

Thanks Jay. It's not quite as nice as the SRT-4, though. Then again, I'm not in debt either .

Ah man, I've always wanted one of those. I found a Firefly sitting out in front of some duplex in the ghetto and I was really tempted to go knock on the door but then I realized that I was in the ghetto and got the hell out of there.
