I love how stealth it looks with that much tech under the bonnet.

Re: The car simply known as "The Talon"

Thanks, I really wanted a sleeper look. I am thinking of having the intercooler done in a heat extracting coating which is black.

Re: The car simply known as "The Talon"

I actually had a direct port kit for the car but I decided not to go that route.

Re: The car simply known as "The Talon"

Looks awesome!

Two questions, why that intake manifold and what kind of ignition system are you running? Ok one more, what kind of power are you hoping to hit?

I see this being a very cool thread!

Re: The car simply known as "The Talon"

First the intake, it was very popular when I started the build. I will most likely switch to something else but for now it has to do. I have an msd ignition with buschur coil on plug. Don't really have power goals in mind but 800 on dave's dyno would be nice.

Re: The car simply known as "The Talon"

Looks like my original DSM, at least on the outside. Very nice build, anxious to see more progress pics and numbers.

Re: The car simply known as "The Talon"

My first car was a 90 black and silver. That was actually the first car I ever bought myself so this car is like my first car reborn
