New member here, not new to cars. I own a 3000GT VR4 that I'll be going TD05 + twin evo3-16G with this summer. Working on that car has given me pretty good familiarity with turbo systems and tuning/fuel management.

My brother and I are looking at picking up a cheap project DSM, preferably one with a DOHC 4G63, and doing a forced-induction conversion (or upgrade) as well. We're going to check out a few local junkyards and cant wait to get started.

Hello Everyone

I am big fan of rally cars and bikes and I am feeling nice among this community.

[97 4G63]

Welcome do you own a dsm?

[bacalhau16]

HI!

Im 23 years old, have had many many cars, including an EVO.

Just purchased a 90 GST with a lot of toys, looking to make it my drag car. Only shooting for low 12's high 11's possibly, so I dont think it should be too hard.

Hello dsmtuners my name is Ryan. I have been around dsms for about 5 years now. My first car was a nt 1.8l 1991 eclipse and then I sold it to buy my Gvr4. I have also owned nt 2.0 1991 laser and am now looking to buy a stock 1g awd to daily drive. I love these cars and the power you can get out of them.

sup everyone,

names Joe from MD and I just bought my first DSM '91 Eagle Talon AWD TSi this week. I also drive a '89 240sx and I am a drifter/auto-x and really into cars. I am not new to the game but just the DSMs. I know a little bit about them from recent research, etc. but looking to learn more!

hit me up on aim or something!

Sup guys, my name is Justin, i'm very new to this dsm scene. I've been in the Supra scene for about 6 years, I have a 93 toyota supra turbo, it's getting kinda boring, just looking for something new (AWD). I picked up a 1g, 91 talon tsi awd. I know nothing about DSM's. I've always loved 1g's but never got into it until now. I'm from chicago, and participate in the car scene all around the mid-west. Hope I learn a bunch from you guys, thanks.

Hey guys im just getting back into the dsm's i had a 91 Talon TSI some time ago but it got stolen and crashed up i didn't have money nor time to start agian so i said goodbye to my dsm and moved on....but now im coming back but i have been out of touch with dsm tuners and the whole car scene. So im here to ask for help about a 92 Talon im looking to buy this May if the guy still has it he most likely will, This is what is has..

Whats up guys and girls. I am Dennis from Charleston SC. I daily drive a 92 celica and I have several others cars and projects. My #1 project is my dsm which is a 92 laser awd. The car has been built on a tight budget due to kids and a family. The Cars best in the 1/8th is 7.6 at 96mph on a 20g with pump and no tune. The car has been undergoing surgeory for about 1 year as its been down for about 2years. It is getting almost a complete drag race set up. p67 turbo with 4inch ic core. AEM, 3.5 exhaust/ ptt clutch / cop set up/ and a direct nitrous set up. The car has a stock engine with 185k on it and I plan on pulling atleast 2 high 10 runs before I do a crazy build. I am 29 years old and have built several fast cars and I am hoping this will be my fastest. Before the car was full street trim but now its about to get nasty.

Hey everyone, im Nick, i used to live in Pittsburgh, PA, owned a few Turbo DSM's, i moved to Texas and took my bone stock NT Eclipse with me and have since added a nice list of mods.

Its rather built for being a NT and will soon be hitting the dyno to see what kind of numbers it will actually put down.

Look forward to learning a bit more and trying to help the best i can with my knowledge!

Hi, my name is Christian and i live in Columbus, Ohio. I drive a 1993 honda Civic CX with a complete OEM rebuild (was being built for boost). Iam on a ton of ohio and national forums (ohiohondas, ohionissans, ashtabularacing, 740racing, cincinnatistreetracing, honda-tech, clubcivic, hondahookup) and now on here. I want to learn more about DSM's and become more familiar with them because i would like to own one in the near future and i would like to be able to work on it myself. Thanks and God Bless.

[spinninfwdlaser]

Six, glad to see you here. Converting Honda guys to DSM guys is what some of us like to see. Although, there is an "offical intro thread" stickied to the top of this forum.

[8six]

Yea, its not that i dont like hondas but i miss my old integra and would like to get into something else before i get another one. I have never owned a turbo'ed car before and i love how the 2g eclipses/talons look and preform. Its also a lot of the people i meet that own hondas and the way that act that pisses me off and makes me not want to own/drive a honda. Alot of them think there better then everyone else on the road because they drive a civic and they give no credit were its due to other people and what they have built because its not a honda/acura. Sorry, I didnt read the stickies so if this needs deleted i will reintroduce myself in the proper thread.

its cool that your a new dsmer, however these fourms are for real qustions.......but hey , way to join thebest party around

[hdoerr]

Welcome

[leecavturbo]

thanks for the welcome chaps(dudes)
i thought the newbie forum was for introductions
and hello i'm new type of thing! but there you go.
you'll regret asking me to ask questions
first off excuse my ignorance but what is a DSM?
is that a car make?
i joined the forum as my interest is in turbo tuning
much as yours is, i think when you have a turbo car
the performance is what is so rewarding not the car make
inparticular you just love you car because of how fast it is
not becasue its a dsm,honda,evo etc
i run a gm 4pot 16v with a gt2876r and dta management
i have siemens 610cc inj, nice intercooler, 3" exhaust
but struggle with power output, so was hoping to grab some
tips and specs from you guys
is that setup of 4 pot 2.0L and 16v head and turbo similar on dsm?
also what is a bep and a hta turbo or housing? who makes them where can you get them from?
