Project Fireball, 1990 Eagle Talon TSI AWD Options

[BudmannG]

As you all know now I have a new project. I am going to call this "Project Fireball" for now. This is a 1990 Eagle Tallon TSI AWD 5 speed. I will try to keep the post updated, As I will be trying to work on this over the winter. And I will try to post picks of what I have done.

Pic of car when I got it.


To start off with I stripped the interior completly. Then I am going to take out all the sound deadener. And then look at Rhino lining the whole floor board. Any advice on this would help. Should I or Shouldn't I?


That's it so far, as I said before this is going to take all winter. So keep posted and I will update.

Here is the website with the info that Bud posted. http://www.stevetek.com/R-FuelSys.html

I used it as a guide to upgrading my fuel lines. I didn't have to do any JBwelding though because fullthrottlespeed.com sells bolt on -6an and -8an fuel rail adapters. It definitely allowed me to run more boost without knock and I suggest it to anyone who is getting serious about modifying their car. Its pretty simple, relatively cheap, and will pay dividends especially when running stupid large turbos.

Hcar is right about the lines from the tank to the filter not being the biggest restriction. The main restrictions are the stock fuel filter itself and the stock line running from the fuel filter to the rail. If you're on a budget upgrading these two items will do essentially the same thing, but again if you're planning to go stupid big, cough up the extra dough to run the line all the way from the fuel tank.
