Things to check for

I've got a great deal on a turbo charged prelude. I'm not gonna mention a price, but lets just say it's a friend of the family so to speak.

Performance:
Rev-Hard turbo kit
T3/T4 - .48/.60
25x8x3.5 intercooler
2� intercooler piping
Tial wastegate
Tial blow off valve
Custom downpipe
Custom wastegate dump tube
Missing link
Bung in downpipe for wideband O2
Vortech FMU
FAL single slimline fan
Battery relocated to trunk
NGK BCPR7ES plugs
Apex-i V-AFC
GReddy turbo timer
Head work
Titanium retainers
Competition springs
Competition valves (stock size)
Valvework and minor port/polish
ACT HD clutch
Autometer boost guage
Autometer a/f guage
Autometer dual guage pod
Apex-i World Sport cat-back

Suspension:
Tokico Shocks/struts
Tokico 1.3� lowering springs
17� Konig Toxxins
Cooper 215/40/17 tires


Only thing I know of are the 2 font fenders need to be replaced/fixed (quoted 1150 from honda body shop) and the exhaust sort of rattles/resonates (loose clip or something...think it may have bottomed out when they took it to change oil).

Now other than that I have driven the car and it feels VERY strong. First gear is rediculous if you can get any traction at all. The turbo is pushing 6lbs of boost and is set to run rich. Using a V-AFC2 as fuel management and FPR. It's pushing over 200lbs of torque and ~240-250HP at the wheels. Professionally tuned.

Other than a leakdown/compression, what else should I check for, specific to turbo charged cars?

Thanks
-Daniel
