I find that funny too. When the insurance company cut the check I walked swiftly away from that car. I've been removed from that car for almost a year. I see they switched the intake. I'll be the first to say that will present a problem. The car's tune was designed with a different intake. We played around with many styles and none of them worked well except the one we used. Its kind of a long story how that worked out.

As for the tune. Its tuned on 100oct only! So IDK if the currant owner has been using 100oct? If they haven't, its kaboom city very soon.

On another note: I guess if someone asked me what was done to the car... I'd tell them. However the car was totaled. So that brings up the question. is it safe? I can't honestly say that it is. I wouldn't want to be in a car as fast as it is. Knowing the extent of the body, suspention, and subframe damage.

So I will say this on a public forum... Dyno-Comp, MBH, or myself personally have no connection with this car. It was, in the past a work in progress project. However it was never 100% finished. When it was wrecked all ties to the car were ended. Nothing on that car is warrantied from Dyno-Comp, MBH or myself. The Ebay ad may imply that this car was built by Dyno-Comp and myself. However neither Dyno-Comp MBH or myself have anything to do with this car. That includes ECU tune along with anyother issues this car might have.

I doubt they will ever get close to the asking price, but who knows

Shows it's a lemon and a total loss

PLAID

Interested parties can contact Dyno-comp or previous owner for more details,I'm sure they will have no problems talking to you.

I am so loving how THEY are volunteering YOUR time Mike!! Do you get paid for that consult? I believe that when you took the claim settlement check, the release was Mutual. You owe them nothing!!

I notice that its a new seller called Biltworth?? You know them?? I'll bet they bought the insurance "salvage" through the auction for a few grand and then turned around and fixed it and now its for sale??

i saw the youtube video of the damage to the car a while back, but who fixed the body? was that you mike, or the next owner? and did this seller contact dyno-comp before giving out information like that (blah blah blah contact dyno comp because our dumb @$$e$ won't answer your questions) pretty sure that's illegal for dropping a company name in their, but if you know whose selling the car personally that's a different story.
