Oh yeah, I'm not letting this one get away before turning up the boost and making some power! I haven't turned up the boost past stock for any of my dsm's, biggest regret ever!! Can't send a ship out to sea before making sure it stays afloat! Lol

Glad to see my old talon ended up in the hands of somebody that's putting some work into it. Thanks for making a project thread, I look forward to see its progress!
Did you install the aftermarket alarm in it? That's the biggest issue I have right now. I have the entire alarm removed and all wires out but the car still won't start nor will the windows roll up. The only thing that hasn't been removed is the split on the ground cable for the ignition switch. It was split in two, and I even connected them using a wire but the car is still not allowing me to bypass the alarm. I'm stuck on what it could be.. *I drove it home from the guy I bought it from.*

Is it red!?
Sorry, no. Kinda kidding anyways, I'll probably just get a new one from Sorta fit.

I'm not sure about the alarm, as I don't even remember if it had one it during my ownership. I bought the car from a guy in Duluth who is the one who rebuilt the engine. It had sat in his parents barn for years (oil change sticker was from 2004 and only had about 1000 miles more on the car than the sticker) so that's partially why it's in such great shape. I sold the car to a member on this site, and don't know the history past that. I did the exhaust (3 inch with a test pipe), suspension(kyb gr2 with tein s-tech), and those wheels and tires are off my old neon. Here's a throwback pic to the day I bought it.

Must've been the guy who bought it after you. I wish the hood was never carbon fiber wrapped :( Do you remember what exhaust you put on it?

I forget the name of the downpipe, buts it's a 3", and the catback is a srs 3" stainless. The hood had a huge dent and was in really bad shape, so that is why it's wrapped

Sweet, good to know. Well that makes sense lol, I would've been pissed if it was a clean hood that was wrapped.
