I've had some electrical gremlins with mine which I hear is something that comes with the package on corrado's. Looks in real good condition though, the charger would be the other really big thing and since that is already replaced 40000 miles ago then you shouldn't have to worry about it for another 400000. I would just suggest a boost gauge, when the boost starts to drop thats when you should get it replaced.
