Up for sale is my 2001 Spyder I bought at a Cadillac dealer in MI in 2008. Has about 18X,XXX on the body. Underwent a 2zz swap at MWR 3 years ago and then a turbo kit at Turbokits.com 2 years ago. Its currently at DD Performance Research because of a piston failure on the old block. Motor is fully assembled and now there is an issue I guess at 3k RPM, costing more money to diagnose. I had enough with this car I just want out. Summer car no winters and never auto crossed or road raced.

Your engine has a run-ability problem of some sort, the nature of*
which has not yet been determined. The problem presents when trying to*
rev above 2500 rpm as a stutter and/or backfire and an inability to rev*
past 3000 RPM. DDPR has contacted you and expressed our willingness to*
diagnose the issue for you in order to complete the project. This would*
be done at your expense, unless it was determined to be a fault of*
workmanship or installation in which case we would of course have*
repaired the issue at no charge. You have declined to allow us to*
complete this diagnosis. Prior to contacting you, at no charge to you,*
we have confirmed that the engine is mechanically sound. It is timed*
properly, the compression is within 5 PSI across all cylinders, the*
compression results fall within the normal range for your camshafts on a*
motor with un-seated rings, the fuel pressure is set properly and is*
maintainign properly when the problem presents. We swapped ECUs to a*
different engine management system (power FC), and we also swapped*
another Hydra EMS into the vehicle in order to rule out a control unit*
problem. We swapped coils from another vehicle with no change, and we*
confirmed +12V to all coils and a resistance on the ground circuit to*
all coils under 20 ohms. We have additionally confirmed that all visible*
components are connected properly, and that the camshaft and crankshaft*
position sensor waveforms are normal. The camshaft reluctors are*
approximately 3 degrees advanced from factory camshafts, and the*
waveforms are not identical to factory camshafts, but this appears to be*
a result of the machining process at MWR during the manufacturing of the*
camshafts. We do not believe that this is the cause of the issue. We*
have NOT confirmed fuel quality, injector performance, or the complete*
integrity of the electrical system. We did note that there are wires cut*
near the ECU. This condition which predated the cars arrival at DDPR may*
or may not have something to do with the current problem.
