Re: 1990 Eagle Talon TSi AWD

FP Manifold it is! The only thing that I was worried about it was the price; seeing as it's so cheap, then again, it's cast and not really that expensive to produce, fits in the stock location without any terrible modification whatsoever (extend oil feed lines, etc. if applicable). Any numbers on either manifold, Evo 3 and FP?

Already got a boost leak tester, came with the vehicle. I will be doing the dish soap/carb cleaner leak tester pretty soon here, but first I've got to fix the new starting issue (Doesn't Start Much anyone?). Going along the lines of either the starter relay (since it is missing its casing and wrapped in duct tape: FAIL! or the ignition relay; aftermarket alarm system appears to have been installed before I owned the car which could account for a lot of voltage drop across the wires or a huge short to ground with a lot of resistance). Haven't gotten a chance to test it outright as of yet given work today, but tomorrow after work it'll get done and fixed, provided I have the necessary wire.

For how much that it burns, at a rough estimate, I'd say around 2 quarts in three weeks. Waaay too much. Had it been a 1/4 quart in two weeks I could stand, but at the much burning, good lord.
