A couple of questions, is the owner a member here ?
Can Nitrous be used in conjunction with a turbo ?
Would the manual box stand up to this power ?

Nitrous and Turbo's go hand in hand it's the only way to get em off the line QUICKLY. e

Yes nitrous can be used with turbo. The same consideratiosn need to be taken into account like cylinder pressure, fuelling, tuning etc as with a high strung NA motor.

From what i understand though, oil changes are more important as the oil is affected/degraded more so from nitrous than normal petrol combustion so the turbo is more susceptible to damage if not serviced properly.

apparently stock T5's dont like that sort of power, maybe more so with the racing clutch

The ad doesnt say where it's from and there are no detailed engine bay pics to see how/what was done

It looks ИИИИ hot.
Only question is why do you spend that sort of money on it then sell it?

Manual box ( 5spd ) would implode at the thought of 500 rwhp.. I'd hate to see a shot of nos and what that does to it out of the hole..

Car has been for sales for ages..

T5's can struggle with stock power, a few full power runs with 500+ hp it would soon so bang.

Nudge's old GT had those rims, didn't? They suit the GT more than the XR6.

20's on the front and 22's on the rear, that's one way to fill those big @rse wheel arches......
