Because it'd be a lot of work to deal with, as well as NEEDING a lot of work that a lot of people don't know how to do. It still needs to be tuned. How many average joe's do you know that know how to tune a turbocharged engine that wasn't made to be turbocharged?

no offense to the owner, but that thing is a headache and a half, otherwise he wouldn't be selling it

I'm not arguing that, but at $510 you'd think someone would at least nibble.  Especialy considering all the crap that sells high on e-pay.

you'd think, but I guess there aren't too many people in this area that want to take on a possible $1500 maintenance nightmare
