It's truly a sad time for me because I'm officially putting this car up for sale. Life comes first, so I'm trying to do the right thing.
1989 Blaze Red TurboII
VIN# - JM1FC3320K0705996
I bought this car with just under 109K on the clock, and it now has just over 111K. I have owned it since 2003, and I bought it completely stock with a blown rear apex seal. Since then, I have spent countless time and effort making this into a car like no other. I don't even want to add up the receipts that I have for everything that I've done to it. I would honestly cry. I don't have the time or energy to part this car out, so I'm going to sell it as a whole. It's a clean title, and I would have to check, but I believe I'm the third owner. I bought it from an older female that babied the car. It is one of the straightest, and most clean S5's that I've seen, which is another rare trait. I would say overall body is a 8.5/10 and the interior is an almost perfect 9.5/10.
As some of you know, I cracked a front plate on the dyno a few weeks back. The car still sits in that current state with the front plate cracked. All that is need for this car to fire up and drive is a front plate, and an OEM o-ring kit, which is about $200 from mazdatrix. Chris Ludwig of Ludwig Motorsports has it currently tuned for driving and a decent tune up to 11psi (gate springs). We were getting ready to start fine tuning in boost when the plate cracked. If someone buys this car within the next 2 weeks, I'll throw in a front plate with it.
I will list the mod sheet below along with some pictures. All mods have right around 2K miles or LESS on them. I don't have the greatest pictures, but they are good enough to give you an idea.
Price, as is, right now is $10,500. I'm basically selling everything for less than what I have in parts ALONE in the car. So you are getting a rare S5 TII in excellent condition for free. With that being said, If this car does not sell soon, after I get settled into my new place over the next couple of weeks, I will take it off the market and perform the rebuild and get it back to where it needs to be. The price will then go up significantly, so if you want the deal of a lifetime, act fast. Trust me on this one, my loss is your total gain right now. I'm not moving on the price. I'm located in Lebanon, OH 45036.
I'm not looking for trades, only cash.

Here is a dyno sheet from last year on a Mustang "Man's" Dyno:
Decent Tune (still rich in the middle/upper RPM) - 14psi - 93 Pump Gas
374whp/306wtq (add 8-10% for Dynojet numbers)

I ran a 12.0 @ 121 in the 1/4 mile in this car last year with a 2.0 60', when it was a bit heavier. It weighed in at 2,800lbs even.
That time was ran on 12psi of boost. I never ran it under high boost conditions, but you can use your imagination...
This car is capable of 500+whp.
Here is a clip of a 18psi (110 leaded only) pull on the dyno (watch the speedo):
