1991 talon 500 hp project

[way2fastalon]

so today jahaan dude stopped over here as i was pulling my engine out and might upgrade my turbo setup my e16g is not looking too good its amazing what a 100 mi will do to a turbo it has shaftplay now and dident before when it was first installed and looks like it was eating something .. not too happy about that it had an air cleaner and everything was tight dont see how that would get chewed up

so going to try to upgrade to an fp green and an evo 3 mani

Trust me, if I had a car to work on, I wouldn't be on here right now! haha I've heard some great things about those FP Greens.

Don't let Jahaan Dude touch your turbo, or one you put on your car :)

whats wrong with jahann dude. ?

he is a great guy spent a few hrs over here today pulling apart my engine checking out the damage . ive seen a few pictures of the turbos he has built i know some people have there grudges here and there Ive heard all the story's as far as i can see he knows what he is doing everything he says makes perfect sense we going to be bringing my block out to motors by gosh
next weekend to get all cleaned up my e316 is sorta smoked not to happy about that . going to need a new wheel .

anybody that is knowledgeable on our engines and cars ill take any help .
i can do the work it will just take more time as i have to read more on how to do the work right by myself unless there is volunteer help available like jhann dude that is helping out . and i take that and will return the favor :)

If you're getting a real FP Green, have FP rebuild it, end of story. It's worth the extra $150 to have a real company do it, trust me. I've heard good and bad stories about jhaan, and never run one of his turbos personally, just that I have found it's good to have turbo companies rebuild their own turbos (past experience with other companies). BTW, you won't be getting 500whp out of a green, not sure if you're still shooting for that goal.

Jhaan (julian) is definitely a very cool guy to work/help you with. I've got about roughly 4,000 miles on his rebuilt e316g. It still pulls very strong.

Ive also heard good things from Jhaan dude. Making a post like this without details is kinda shady. you should really post details or put it in the good guy/ bad guy forum to get it worked out.
