So I'm new to the 6g and might ask dumb questions here and there. But we have to learn some how, right? I am typically a Honda tuner but have loved the 6g for as long as I can remember. I finally had the chance to buy one and I couldn't be in more extasy. So far, it has a body kit, 17" wheels, exhaust and a Turbo wink.gif

was the previous owner a 6gc guy? That's pretty involved for the work done.
Also nice find! Def need an intercooler, but that will be a monster of a 5s when its done (assuming they rebuilt the interior with the appropriate internals)
Be careful with what you put into it as far as boost in concerned without knowing if they put forged internals in the motor.... seeing the rattle can paint job, the body kit, and the untuned turbo with no intercooler, could be a 1 man garage job who just wated to "get parts overnight from Harry"

Take your time and add the appropriate safety features, proper tune, WTA, and on stock internals you should be good to 14 or 15 lbs if there isn't any significant wear, damange, or high mileage.

Nice to not see someone stroll in with a 7a and ask hw much POWAHH it'll make
