Just picked myself up a 91 Talon TSI awd that has been passed around the forum a bit over the past month. Plan is to daily drive it through winter and next summer then make maybe make it a bit faster when I have my own garage to work on it in.
I wont mess with it power wise for now, just hopefully clean it up a bit.

First day I picked it up:
Swapped the rims out to the 2g gst wheels I had laying around for the rest of the summer. When winter hits I'll throw some stock evo8 rims with winter tires on it. How it sits as of this morning in my parking ramp.
First is to find/fix any leaks. I think the throw out bearing might be taking a shit too so I'll probably pull the tranny before too long and try swapping that out.
