Parts for Eagle Talon

[ControlledBurn]

I'm a little new to the DSM scene, so forgive the ignorance. I'm looking at getting a new exhaust for my Talon.

Basically I'm wondering do I have to look for parts made specifically for the Eagle Talon TSi AWD I own, or could I use parts intended for an Eclipse GSX. I know engine mods will be the same since it's the same engine, but I'm not sure about stuff like the exhaust since they may have been laid out differently for whatever reason.

Any help here is greatly appreciated

im pretty sure that everything is the same when it comes to engine, chassis, suspension, exhaust etc etc etc.. only the body is different.. thats it

In that case, I've got another question. I just bought the car, it's bone stock, and I'm wondering what would be the best things to spend cash on for mods first? Intake, Headers Exhaust? Any reccomendations on which particular parts to go with, or ones to absoloutely stay away from?

since you have a 1G, all your parts are interchangeable with the eclipse and laser. as far as your mods go... do all the free mods on the dsm vfaq . its easy to put a k&n on. as far as exhaust goes, get a nice 2.5in or bigger exhaust. and they dont make headers for our cars but they do make tubular mainfolds. if you want to upgrade your go with one from a 95 or newer talon/eclipse. they have a much better and bigger manifold. after you get that far your gonna need a boost guage at the least. then get a manual boost controller. soon after i bet your gonna need a clutch by the time you get this far you will know alot more about your car. and will know what to modify next. but definately follow that link i gave you. have fun.
