Thanks for the input.
I spoke with the seller this evening and was told the engine had been resealed, cylinders honed and possibly blueprinted, and a K28 turbocharger installed, not that I know what a K28 buys you over a K27. So it's not as original as I thought. Sounds like that may be a good thing. I am not in the market (yet) and was trying to find out a little to help him out. But who knows. It is black and I've always liked the early turbos in that color.
I bet the thermal reactors you mentioned were the cause of the engine reseal and improvement to the cylinders. I'll try to find out if anything has been done to the clutch/transmission and whether the reactors have been replaced. Could you tell me what the SC cams provide over the stock ones and how much lag does this car have before the boost kicks in?
If he decides to proceed with the sale, I may post some photos and other info on the 'cars for sale' board.
It sounds like if the modifications have been made, as a minimum, the car shouldn't lose any value over the next several years.
