You bought a turbo car and you don't know the owner or the setup?

+1 and reading the OP's post was

If you purchased the car, wouldn't you know who the previous owner is? Unless you purchased from dealer I guess.

If he bought it from a dealer he should go to the dealer, explain the situation and get in contact with the previous owner.

Regardless I don't see how any dealer that would by a Turbo'd car would do so without knowing anything about it. Sounds like theres a good chance the OP got the big weenie on this one

I bet theres something jacked up mechanically on that car

Without opening up the engine you cant really tell. Just treat it like its a stock engine and only run it in the high 300s and you'll be good, whether its stock or not.

If the motor had internal work done to it, you would know. How does the car idle?

yeah, for real...

slow down man! be sure to list as many details as possible. Post as many pictures as possible, then someone might recognize it. However with the limited info, "I bought a turbo car at a dealer" no mention as to where (exactly), from what dealer etc, no one will be able to give you any info aside from what has already been said.

I think it's better to try and contact the dealer. Even if the idle is higher then oem spec, the other owner could've just change cams but leave the block stock.

good luck op

17k for a 350, w. an APS turbo and internal work? Seems like a crazy deal or someone elses problem.
How come the car wasnt checked up and down before you bought it?
