2G pistons with 1G 6-bolt rods? Not a bad setup at all.

THe DSM is NOT the platform for autoX or roadcourse! You are screwed, my friend!

As long as you don't replace parts that break with more used and beaten up parts it is just fine for some autoX or roadcourse action. Suspension, brakes, and other key components not directed to make big power are the ones you will need to focus on.

With the proper setup, a DSM can turn well.

Tell that to DG who has placed well in nationals and to the Archer Brothers who won many SCCA championships in them.

I am not looking to RULE auto-x or nothing, i just like driving. And if its more difficult with a DSM then i can't wait for the challenge.
But yeah, stock rebuild with higher compression FTW!!!

I agree on the Archer Bros. I mean come on ... to make it into the booklet for the Talon that must be great. And win three Manufacturers Championship too. If you have not seen the Talon Booklet ... hit me up. I can zip it and send it out.
