Got the interior back in. Hopefully we get some warmer weather soon!

Actually doesn't look too bad. Wouldn't be my 1st color choice, but not too bad actually, contrasts all the black nicely. And as long as you're good with it, who cares. Good job man!

Now you just need some glowsticks

And while the interior was out we out some carpet in and a headliner to help clean up the inside of the car.

Glad to see my only 1G I ever owned parts in a sweet car! Headliner and carpet look good!

We're you up working on the car?

I'm up here right now!

[4seasons69]

Here's a little update on the car. The car has about 130 miles on it no issues. So right now the plan is to put as many miles on it as I can over the next two weeks. Then the weekend of April 6th and 7th hopefully swapping turbos and having my exhaust redone to fit the new turbo. Then I'll have about two weeks to get any boost leaks or any other bugs that may come up sorted out. Then the car should be going on the dyno for a tune on April 22nd. Things are finally coming together with this thing. Can't wait for it to be done

[4seasons69]

Okay I put some more miles on the talon today and we ran into some issues. It died on me and wouldn't restart. I had to have it towed to my work. I ended up not having spark. the light on the side of my msd wasn't lighting up. of course I forgot my bypass plug for the msd. nick (cornfed2.4) and joel (99gsxjoel) were kind enough to run my bypass plug down to me. The car fired right up. I let the car warm up and then plugged the msd back in and it ran fine.

Then on my way back to my buddies house where I have been keeping the car the alternator quit charging again. I barely made it back to wyoming. The car died right as I pulled into my buddies driveway. so now I get to look into that yay.

On the bright side there is now over 200 miles on the new engine. A huge thanks to nick and joel for helping me out tonight!!!!!

[4seasons69]

I was able to take a look at the talon today to see why it wasn't charging. I was not looking forward to dealing with charging issues. Luckily it's just the alternator relocation bracket broke. So it's an easy fix. I was able to get a hold of jay from Jay racing and he said he can ship a new one out tomorrow. It was either another aluminum one free of charge or an upgraded steel one for $25. I went with the steel one to hopefully avoid this issue in the future.

[goodhart]

I think that same thing happened to Swifty a few years ago as well.

Indeed it did. This was supposedly an upgraded one made of stronger aluminum than the one that broke on Swifty. Jay now offers that bracket made out of steel.

[turbotalon1g]

Sick.

[goodhart]

Nice! not too far off from gettin tuned now eh?
