Sounds like you bought a car that was complete trash , but you should of atleast had a local look over the whole thing or do it yourself when you went to trade a perfectly good GTO for it .
Sounds like seller was shady from what info I got but I only heard one side so I cant really make that call.
You need some ID1000 Injectors let me know I will sell a extra set I have stupid cheap to help you get back on the road. Also ditch that larger map sensor it stupid to run that and not even put out 15psi

As for the car. I realize yes I did buy it and a project it has become. But if I was aware that it neede work in every area before I bought it I wouldn't be pissed. Buying a project car is one thing. Paying forba fully functional at and getting a turd and a half is another. The fuel pump an bumper look like Mcgyver installed them with 2 Bobby pins and a 4 inch piece of duct tape.
I am new to hondas and to turboed cars. I've been looking for a s2k forever. So to say I just jumped into this car cuz I was like "omg a turbo Honda" isn't fair to me. I may not be a Honda turbo genius but I am fully capable of knowing when something isn't installed properly. As far a this car goes nothing was done right. And I realize I have to invest money into it. And if you ask angerman I'm quite eager to start my project. I just wish I was told "hey there are 75 things you need to fix before this car is going to be decent"
Don't really know what else to say. All I need now is for people to help me get this car read worthy. Looks like I have somebody willing to sell me injectors. So that's one piece off my list.

quick complaining and "fix" the car man. it is what it is and it needs work. regardless of wether you knew it needed work or not before the deal, you know now. you can't get mad about that. fix what you think is wrong with the car and be done.

Yea, "get the car fixed" has been said a couple times now. What else would OP do? Look at it in the garage for the rest of ownership?
