Wow nice car. The set-up you got is something i previously concidered and still am. I was hoping to be the only one with it but i guess not. Hope to see you around.

Do any street racing?

Thanks, but its actually a POS...rusty and runs like ass. Shhhhhh you might give it a complex...the more i tell the car its a shitbox the better it runs.

Thanks anyway, Matt
Definately a DSM owner!!!! You know how to talk to your car. Can't let it get a big head about itself. ;)

Anyway, welcome to the site. Rochester, eh??? You'll be only a few miles away from some good rallycross action if you wanted to come out and watch some real racing. Don't get me wrong, racing in a straight line is fun, but it just gets too boring after a while. Gotta throw in some dirty curves to have some REAL fun. Beautiful car too. Probably wouldn't want to race it on the dirt though. I always liked that style of talon.

Damn, secondary injectors, I don't think Jet knows how to tune that combo. :stick: ;) Looks like we'll have a few fast cars this year. Welcome.

You must've hung around with Todd Hayashi, he's always had some great tech info back in the days of the Talon Digest.

Welcome to the site Matt! Looks like an awesome 2G!! :banana:

You should at least make reservations for the Shootout...you can always cancel, but the hotels book up fast. The majority of us are at the Best Western, and all the details are in the General Events section.

:D

I haven't had to use the secondary injectors yet. I can't get the POS car to run good enough to warrent +15psi and race gas. 15psi at WOT only puts the 720s' at 40% duty.

Todd folded his cards 3months after I moved here. Todd knows quite a bit. But he didn't know when to give up on the 7-bolt. He and Mike from DSS built 4ea 7-bolt engines in a row. Each of them never made it to the 100mile mark before crankwalking. He insisted the 7-Bolt was fine. After the most recent crankwalk he gave up and sold the car to my friend for $6k. We imediadely RMVD the running-walking 7-bolt and threw it in the dumpster. We also threw out the Old School Knob-AFC/VPC combo and Installed a built 6-bolt and AEM EMS. The car now runs 11s untuned; when we can keep axles in it. Todd still has DSMHawaii over for dinner but won't consider owning a DSM or racing again. Awesome guy and a DSM Hawaii legend.

Thanks for the welcome, Matt

Welcome! Your car should give some of the 1g's a challenge.
