94 Eagle Talon TSI Convertable...

Hmmm... Someone either got very creative with a sawzall or has too much time on their hands with photoshop. Thoughts?

Actually wouldn't be too hard to do, except for the chassis bracing part. That's why there's no motor in there, the car would probably crack in half if there isn't some serious bracing underneath or that rollbar extends across the floorpan front to back and side to side.

25 PSI is very impressive........ When you don't have an engine.

I think Mark should make the EVO3 a convertible, suicide doors would be a nice touch as well.

You're not accounting for drivetrain power loss. Realistically, you'd be down to about 19 or 20 psi when all is said and done.


If I had to have a weird 1g DSM I'd get one of the rare gullwing door ones over-seas.
