Full Version: Keeping the Talon Alive

After picking up my 1991 Talon TSi from the bodyshop, I have decided to keep it. It wasn't wrecked, the roof was rusty and the hood was faded. Now I have decided to do the following:

1. 2.5" Catback (Already Installed)

2. Walbro 190lph Fuel Pump

3. K&N Filter

4. Rebuilt ISC

5. KYB Adjustable Struts

6. Lowering springs (not sure which ones)

7. Big Brake upgrade

8. Slotted rotors F&R

9. EBC Red Stuff pads

Already have a BudmannG logger cable (highly recommend) and IBM C500 for logging.

I'll have pics as soon as I finish installing the parking brake cables and take it off the lift at home.

Anyone have any suggestions?? Comments? Any good used parts laying around I could use?

Thanks!

I would go with a bigger intake pipe. And UICP.

Any recommendations on the UICP?

Dejon 2 1/4 is what I have. I think!

Or get a Buschur Racing UICP from awdnot2gsx on this board. Good product.

I second the vote for a 2.5 downpipe, throw a test pipe or high flow cat on there too.

I assume you have some kind of boost controller/boost gauge on there...

I'm sorry, I forgot about awdnot2gsx. My apologizes!

I would just go with a 3" exhaust since they cost about the same and if you go with a bigger turbo you'll want a bigger exhaust. Oh and an intercooler of some sort too might be good. What turbo do you plan on running?

I forgot about the UICP. I'll add that to the wish list!
