This is my 98' Ford Contour SVT. It has daily driver status but is a very entertaining ride none the less.

HISTORY: Bought the car the winter of 2003 w/ a blown motor for $737, perfect 3L canidate. We've recently made some revisions to the original swap. It feels much stronger than the old setup despite poor calibration. Still finishing up some final details before we can hit the dyno for final calibration.

I am no longer turbocharging the car, I bought a 2000 Focus ZX3 and will be doing a AWD conversion on the car. You can view it here: www.cardomain.com/ride/2625400
