So, for sale is my VX220 with ITBs. I've owned this for 6 years and am the second owner. I love driving it when I do take it out but can rarely find the motivation to do so now so figured it's probably a good time to see if someone else will get more joy out of it than I do.

 

[color=#000000;][font="arial, sans-serif;"]I purchased this in 2009, and it's covered approximately [/color][/font][font="arial, sans-serif;color:#000000;"]56000 miles. I’ve been running the ITBs on the standard engine (plus Stage 2 Compcams) since 2012 but last year I decided to rebuild it for a little more power.[/font]

 

[color=#000000;][font="arial, sans-serif;"]Full list of modifications is as follows.[/color][/font]
