Sealed the Deal on a Talon TSi AWD

[Addicted2DSM]

ok new message from the seller now. He said when he turns the key, there is no lights, car wont turn over, nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Dead battery. When was the last time he started the car? Ask him if he tried jump starting the car.
Why did he do all the upagrades and still have a 14B in the car? That does not make sense to me.

this is starting to be in my favor now, I PMed him and asked when did last change the battery and if he had tried to jump it.

ok here's whats gonna happen. Im gonna send my friend the cash for the car. He's gonna go check out the car and see if the seller is Scamming. If he's not then the car is mine otherwise I'll keep my money.

You don't need a different ECU if the FS add is correct, you only need the ECU to be socketed(if it isn't already) and then a Eprom chip. Chips can be purchased from www.DSMChips.com or through a variety of other places. If you're going to tune with DSMLink, why are you looking at purchasing a custom Eprom chip? You had better start reading on your "plans" before you start purchasing things.

in his for sale add he thinks his ECU shorted out because of the power steering line above it leaked into it. If I misread it then I apologize then. With this car this is what Im going for: Slowboy Racing Stage 3 head, Magnus Intake Manifold, 680cc injectors, PTE 57 trim turbo, DSMLink and maybe a 6 point roll bar.

Do you have a horsepower or 1/4 mile goal or are you just basing your "plans" off of what looks cool?

[Addicted2DSM]

I wanted a car that can holds own and still be a daily driver.

The ECU is no where near the power steering lines. But it does sound like a bad ECU to me. Read up on leaky caps.

BTW, let me know if you'd be selling those rims and tires.

I haven't paid for the car yet, read what I said will happen. I asked him if he has opened the ECU and checked. I misunderstood his ad then, is the Alternator under the power steering lines?
