Hello all!


Just found this Forum so let me intruduce myself:

I'm Richard from The Netherlands (yea that's in Europe)

Needless to say I like DSMs
I've got a black 95 Talon Tsi Awd that i'm modifying
and a 83 Starion that I restored

and I recently got hold of a '90 Talon TSI with a spun pistonrod bearing that i'm repairing myself.

Talons(or turbo eclipses) were never sold in Holland and are quite rare so getting parts requires alot of resourcefullness and making your own.
But it adds to the fun when people in their expensive BMW's go WTF;-)

Current mods
95 Talon:
Evo3 16g turbo with Evo3 O2 housing
poorted manifold to match the turbo
550 cc denso injectors
255lph Walbro
Safc-2
Supra MK IV IC
Home made IC pipes to match turbo & IC
Greddy S-type Bov
Home made 2,5"Downpipe with 2,5"catback exaust
Running 20 PSI boost on 95 octane regular gas
Still have to fine-tune some parts and have it dynoed.

'83 Starion 2000ex
4G63T 8 Valve engine (stock)
Intercooler from a Lancia Thema turbo
custom Stainless IC piping
full 3" custom Stainless exaust

Don't have any pics of the actual cars but here's some pics of some of the mods:16g & IC install (http://www.starion.demon.nl/talon_big16g_and_supra_IC/)
90 Talon with spun bearing (http://www.starion.demon.nl/white_talon/repair/)
Messed up 14B (http://www.starion.demon.nl/Turbo_repair/)

Welcome.

Suprising to hear the Starion's come with SOHC 4G63's over there. As for parts, for the 90, you can get GVR4 parts, a lot of them are the same, but Im sure you knew that.

Velkommen Til DSMStyle!!!!!!

I realize that's norwegian but I'm sure you understand it. I spent 2 years in Norway back in 93-95. I was even there for the Olympics. I was working though so I didn't get to go. Only lived an hour and a half away. Oh well.

The only time I have been to the Netherlands was when I flew over to Norway. We switched planes there.

Anyways, good to see some neighbours from across the pond joining us.

I was looking for some information related to MAF translaters and one of the searches ended up here by chance :bounce:
Looked like there was quite some technical knowledge and not to crowded here ..


@mustgofaster

Unfortunatly GVR4's were not sold here either. But plenty of other models based on the 4g63 (all non turbo)
So unless I blow a piston or fry my ecu most parts can be borrowed from the non turbo engines.
