I just saw this on carsales, my question was what is a viper lancer? i have never heard of it before.

The vehicle has also been dyno-tuned and performce better then its original condition.

How the hell do you not have any engine mods, but magically produce a higher dyno figure than the car put out straight from the factory !! :huh::huh:

Methinks someone is full of shit. Either the mechanic who did the dyno, or the guy selling the car!
 
Ha! The size of the alloys meant the suspension had to be lowered!? :blink: and what's a Sports Stage II exhaust system when you're not playing Grand Turismo? <_< I also wonder why he's put quotation marks over 'previously', as in these wheels were 'previously' on the vehicle but they really weren't!?

"The standard exhaust has been replaced with one which is of Sports Stage ll and the vehicles suspension had to be lowered to due to the size of the alloys (17inch) that were 'previously' on the vehicle."

The Viper range of which he speaks is probably something he's made up, given he's put Dodge Viper like stripes over the top of the car....

Still - looks like a neat and tidy little car.

Just based on appearance, looks like he's put a different exhaust, a pod filter, and what seems to be a boost gauge which may indicate a boost controller, which would net him a few extra Kw.
But LOL @ 'Viper Range' and the fully sick 'Turbo' badge on the rear
 
Unless he's replaced all of the engine seals, or rebuilt the engine completely, simple loss of compression and wear of internal components on a 16 year old engine would result in it being impossible to output more than it did from factory.

Fair enough if he's obtained a higher output figure by winding up the boost, but he should state that in the ad.

A pod filter and an exhaust system on a 16 year old engine isn't going to net you a power output higher than the original factory output.

In many cases pod filters actually reduce the engine power over leaving the stock one on. Either that or gain a bee's dick worth of a kw.
 
Just don't like it when people aren't honest when selling their car.

Like the bloke, then chick, selling the GSR that somehow has Evo 5 running gear in it a few posts back!!? :rolleyes::rolleyes::thumbsdown:
