messed up in what way?

[MattyP]

Recently I've been given my brothers 2012 chrysler 300 diesel luxury, And what a car I must say, Very very comfortable and the features are still fairly up to date but my brother being a 28 year old toddler has almost killed it so where do I start, 

About 24 months ago he blew up the turbo after getting it tuned (dodgly) and cable tying the VGT actuator to closed essentially over spinning the turbo. Unfortunately he got the car back 6 months and has done forced it closed again, among other things he ran the car without a dump pipe so he just coated the bay in soot and gunk. 

Fast forward to last week where I semi stole the car off him so here is the list so far of all the things wrong with it so far:

*Battery light/spark light on. While driving volts sit at 14.2 with everything off 12.3

*Oil completly covering rear bar and boot after being fully cleaned after less than 200km

*Brake fluid reservoir been melted by the lack of exhaust on for a while

*EGR has been deleted and throwing a sporadic code

*Underboost code coming up sporadically

*Dpf deleted and leaking

*Pod Filter box required to be built

*Full service 

*Low beams lowered

If you've made it this far, thanks for reading! Look forward to posting pics of fixing this mess
