New to site... new to DSM's... old to cars

Hey all,
I'm new to the DSM community and to this site so I thought I'd say hey quick and show some pics and hopefully get some good input regarding this car. Some of you may already know me, but to others, it will be nice to hear from you.

The car is a 1996 Talon TSi - AWD- ATX - 75k miles (pictures below).

I've got a few things to fix right away (drivers side electric widow/lock buttons, sunroof shade track, drivers side headlight fogged, drivers side mirror flaking and my oil pressure gauge doesn't work). Long term fixes include a new bumper (you'll see in the picture that it's cracked in half), maybe a full repaint, few BPU mods like intake, BOV etc... BUT overall, it's just a pretty decent car for what I'm going to do with it (daily driver)

This isn't my first turbo car (had a 3000gt VR4 for a few years), so I know how that part works, but this is my first ATX turbo car, and initally, it's been a bit weird to drive. I'm not sure when it's spooling, when the BOV blows, when it's got the power when it's not... but i'll get used to it i'm sure.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself and if anyone has any suggestions or comments about the auto trans or just the car in general, I'd be glad to hear them.

I don't know how picture friendly this site is... but here's a bunch. If there is a problem with pictures, we're not going to get along very well... since I'm also a photographer. ** EDIT ** Guess i'm stuck with only 4 pics...
