Your right the title could be a little mis-leading. I figure though most people just need the background info on how they work and how to set it up. Its true it doesn't contain a detailed list of exactly what to do and what parts. I did this so that it would be universal and someone could install this on any car. It really is very simple. You just tap the line and put a valve there so you can shut off the wiper sprayers and turn on your intercooler sprayers. J. R.

I was hoping to get some positive or negative feedback on an article I just wrote for a local car guys site. I did a DIY intercooler sprayer on my car some time back and he saw it at a local car meet. Then later he asked me if I would write a article about it and I agreed. I feel nervous that there might be something I left out or should change. I think I included all the information, but feel free to flame me if I didn't and I will add it to the article. I ran this set-up on my Lotus Seven and it was great. Give me some good feedback please. LINK: http://www.enginebasics.com/Advanced%20Engine%20Tuning/Intercooler%20Sprayers.html J. R.

In response to another gentleman on the forums that I thought might benefit everyone. The vin # JJ3CC54N4Jz029309 The body has some rust on it over the driver rear fender. Watch the video. The frame rails have no rust on them. I just borrowed a buddies wideband yesterday and tuned the car to 9 psi. It feels VERY good. It could stand to be leaned out a little more as its still in the high 10's A/F on WOT, but I don't want to change it in-case this car sells out of state and the car goes down to sea level or the new owner wants to turn the boost back up to 15-16 psi as before. I am in Utah at 4,650 feet. J. R.

Video: Part 1: Part 2: Part 3: Let me know if there is something else you want to see.

I will be doing a 1080p HD video of the car today. Showing everything, and taking it for a spin. I will upload it to my account at the user name juniorrc2003 on youtube later. Also will post a link here later as well. Just email me at juniorrc2003@hotmail.com if you have any other requests you want after you watch the movie. Sound good? J. R.

Alright, This has got to go. My brother has moved and we aren't going to have a place to store the car in 2 months. I have priced it to sell at $1900 dollars. Come and get it. I have been driving around the car and blasting the radio. Scared the bald tires are going to pop on me any-day now, but don't care. Fun car.....will be sad to see it go. J. R.

DAVE ITS YOU!!!! The car is up and running again. Its great to drive it around again. I need to call you and find out how your car is coming. I have put the Lotus 7 away for the winter so no more driving for me. I haven't really been getting much action since I put the car up for sale. I am going to wait till the spring probably and just keep it in the garage till the weather is nice. That will at least give me and my brother some time to finish detailing the interior and the engine bay. We want to make sure the care is looking its best when it finds its new home. The hope being that if the new owner see's the car as a gem, they will take care of it that way too. Hope to keep this car alive for someone's future. J. R.

Ok, That sounds fair. I will list it for $3500 and then let them negotiate with me. Thanks 8ty8starion! J. R.

No one has called me, which I assumed would be the case. I figured the car will sell locally. So back to my original question. What should I list the car for? I am thinking of listing it for $3,200 OBO. Does that sound about right or am I WAY off the radar? J. R.

It needs new tires on the back....but yah I guess someone could do that. If we found someone interested from outside the state I could take hundreds of photo's of it. We have been driving it around to make sure everything is good on it. And yes the mod list is quite nice, and I am sure there are many things I am missing. We have put around $3800 into the car in go fast parts. The car could be parted out and someone could make some money doing that, but I would like to see the car stay whole and someone enjoy it. There are not many of these cars left, and this one looks really nice. It is a very quick car. I only took it to the qt. mile track once and ran a 14.1@104. Traction can be difficult when your putting out the kind of torque this motor makes. I guess if your out of state and interested give me a call. 801-427-2345. Leave me a message if I don't pick-up and I will call you back. I figured it would sell local but if there was out of state interest. J. R.

Hey, My brother and I have had this car for a VERY long time, but the time has come to sell it. Problem is we have been out of the market for so long we have no idea what the car is worth. I see conquest's sometimes bringing around 4k that are like ours, and some that bring 2k that are like ours. I was hoping to get some feedback from you guys on what the market might be for this car. Year: 1988 Model: Conquest TSI Miles on Body: 215,000 Miles on motor: 900 miles on head and valve train, and around 60k on bottom end. Fresh rebuild with all new gaskets TONS of new maintenance things and the car looks INCREDIBLY good for how many miles are on the chassis. Location: Provo, Utah Here is the mod list: Mod list: Super 16G turbo upgrade Braided steel oil feed line 1G Mas Conversion fully wired and ported Aftermarket Oil Cooler TEP full mandrel Down Pipe 5 wire o2 sensor Bosche BCFPR (boost compensating fuel pressure regulator) Walbo 255GLH in-tank Pump 284 int/ 284 ex Moster Banshee Cams Brand new MARNEL Ausi mod port matched head Full Mechanical Rocker arm conversion Brand new high performance valve springs Full Jet-valve elimination New fuel lines with fuel filters New front gas-valve shocks Centerforce Stage 3 Clutch rated to 400 lb feet Lightened + balanced flywheel New redline full synthetic fluid in the Tranny and Diff New high flow intank fuel filter New high flow cabin fuel filter Interior JBL Series II 4.5" installed in the dash JBL series II 6.5" installed in the door JBL Series II 6.5" installed in the rear Comes with custom sub enclosure that will fit under the rear deck-lid at buyers request So what do you guys think we should list the car for? We are going to list it here and locally, understanding that it will most likely sell local so we really want to ask what a fair price would be for the car. Thanks guys J. R. *******EDIT******* Its 1,900 FIRM NOW OUT THE DOOR. See posts below

Thanks to all the responded. I am actually going to be trading some 4" 60 LED trailer lights with intercooledflatty for the the pipes. Thanks to this forum for once again helping two starquest enthusiasts get together. J. R.

Yes I need it all. The cloth pipe and the metal. I know the OCVP is a two piece thing. I have responded to ALL PM's but no one has gotten back to me. PLEASE SOMEONE I need these ASAP to get the thing out of the garage and moving again. Respond to me at juniorrc2003@hotmail.com.....maybe that will work......maybe you guys aren't getting my PM's back. J. R.

PM's responded to. Get back to me please guys I want to get this car running asap! J. R.

Yes, kind of. I have been busy with my Lotus 7 lately, but would like to get my conquest back out of storage and up and running. J. R.
