Another turbocharged protege - In melbourne!

[Rupewrecht]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I was with a mate looking at a SSS Pulsar that he's buying, and i noticed there was a 96 Protege out in the street. had a look at it, and noticed a pod filter hanging down the front, and that it has some 16" rims.

Turns out it was the brother of the guy selling the SSS. i asked him about it and he said that it was turbo! apparently, it's got a GTX conversion, stock/factory spec with no intercooler. its quite the sleeper!

[color=#000000:post_uid1]Even in coldy melbourne I don't like the idea of no
intercooler. I would use the stock GTX one over nothing.
Accident waiting to happen.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]thats what i thought, i was surprised when he said that. i assumed there would be a topmount as i couldn't see one at the front.[/color:post_uid0]
