          275hp? Where did that number come from?

                Nice find.

                Are there any mechanical differences between this and an SVO? (besides the lack of an IC)

                      Thanks, it's similar to the svo, has the same 7.5 rear with posi, but has rear drums instead of disk. It has a t-5 trans, cold A/C heater works great, and get better than 21mpg before I even gave it a tune up. The body is ruff and I really don't like the bubble hatch, but am not going to swap it yet, I want to leave it on for a while to see if it grows on me. The 140mph speedo was swapped in, it came with the original speedo too. It will stay 4cyl, no v8 swap. It has had some suspension work done by the first owner, friggen thing handles like a go-cart. I've already fixed the fog lights, taken care of a few bugs in the electrical, and pulled out all the aftermarket ignition stuff. I also ditched the stock shifter, I hate those things with a passion. right now its only pushing a pathetic 6psi, but I'm not going to up it until I get the new IC injectors and ecm.

                      The turbines will be for sale soon. I'll let you know.

                          So you were washing your car and stepping/making your yard muddy?

                            looks nice, but you might not want to park it on the lawn. It gives off a 'canadian' vibe.
