How much? If you're not stuck on a Gen 2, I'd consider kelly's car. Then again I don't know what price range you have. You could buy mine, but I'm sure mine is more expensive than his.
Guy lives 3 or 4 miles from me, Its a very nice car! I think you can't go wrong for the price... Ive wanted this car for some time now, if I had not just bought a Ford F-250 diesel a month ago I would be all over this car. Im also the guy he is calling out on the Ebay auction!
Looks pretty clean inside and out, it has the same Heff TT kit my buddy has (T4-72mm kit). What I dont understand is why you would need the Nitrous kit when the car has the ability to lay down 1000+ and more to the wheels on boost alone...
The bottle was in the car before the Heffner build! The kids always love the bottle so he left it in! I believe it started as a venom 550 or 650, that was good for a few years then he sent it to heffner!!!

If it was a 650R build that means there was engine work done and a compression ratio of around 10:5:1 or more. Makes me wonder (if it really was a true 650R build if the motor was redone a 2nd time to lower compression for the turbo build. Does it have forged pistons to it?

Oh and feel free to stop yelling about anytime.
The ad says the heads were ported/polished and redone. That would take care of the compression issue. I doubt the pistons were changed for the 650R package. Probably stock forged pistons with the heads redone and new cam.
Jason is no idiot, I'm sure the motor etc. was checked out before the car was built. As long as its still in good mechanical condition, looks like a great car.
Thanks guys for your input, always great information here. I got my mind set on another B/W GTS and having a Heffner build TT set up would be a big +...
This has been several years ago when we talked about the previous build. So I'm not 100% sure how it used to be but I can tell you it is a Heffner car now. The owners name is Tom Fellure I'm sure you could contact heffner performance for the details of the build.

Agreed, and just to be clear my post wasn't trying to insinuate anything about Jason's builds I'm sure he got on the phone with John or one of his guys to get the low down on the actual build before any tear down work began. And the car made good power as shown by the graph so of course proper work was done to finish all the needed part swap outs and such. I was just curious about it upon hearing it was a 650R build to start with is all.
Hope the car sells soon for the man.
