IMO, a truck already modded that far has probably been beat on. Also, if it does have firerings like he says, and not o-rings, I'd stay away from it. Fire rings aren't very good for a street driven truck, they can't handle the amount of heat cycles. Not to mention, 400k+ miles is a lot for a truck, even if it only has 190k on the motor.

well i looked at it today and holy crap does it smoke, it needs a bigger or maybe an extra turbo...or 2... not in too bad of shape got a leak from the hydro boost or somewhere around, is there a common spot for em to leak?

there is no way that truck is at 575HP!!!! maybe the low 400's that charger is just a tickle bigger than stock. full cuts in lots of cases loose you power. 150 injectors are prolly 5x14's or 5x16's which is WAY to big for that charger. 5x12's are PLENTY for a stocker or a super B. there is no mention a an aftermarket fuel system which is absolutly needed with big injectors and DV's! i would run away from this truck as fast as you could. if it was in the 5k range maybe but not at this price. get a truck with 150k on the clock for a price like that. RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes with the size of injectors and dv's the pump IS running very close to dy with a stock lift pump. and full cuts dont have a shoulder on them so they dont stop the fuel flow when fuel needs to be stopped. lots of wasted fuel and excessive heat. if this truck is put together the way it seems to be i wouldnt trust it for anything. a turbo upgrade is gonna run around $1500 a stock turbo is good for around 350 HP which is plenty to have fun in. they are 56/58/12's vrs this 58/61/??? very very minimul gains to be had there. this truck seems to be a kids dream of blowing smoke. and it has 400,000K on it its wore out. keep the stroker and keep lookin.

Agreed... Trucks that are that built usually are beat. But 10K doesnt seem too bad
