Whats left.... I still need to do the following:
- Get the correct piston
- install all of the pistons
- put everything back together, Head, turbo, oil pan, tcase, timing belt, FMIC.
- Bolt up the rear diff
- Install thermal exhaust
- Start car, and adjust ignition timing.
and drive.
But all that is waiting on a piston that is sitting 1400th in line at mahle to be created. 
Ill get some pics up today of everything.

Re: 1992 Eagle Talon TSI Project
its not a B&M its a HURST (has the logo imprint on the front of it.)
I actually am going to try it out. Shifting should be much more faster because of the way the arm is positioned and able to use all four fingers to pull it down, or use the base of the palm to push it up. I thought it was gay at first but then played with it a little and it seems much more comfortable shifting.

Re: 1992 Eagle Talon TSI Project
Ya, you'll see your wrist will hurt, it's not natural at all. twist your wrist, and hold it, and try to powershift. Get a ball, weighted like mine, or even the stock evo ones..call it a day.
