New guy, no way, im just lost.

Actually really, I am new. I bought my first Talon about a month or so ago, and have enjoyed it so far.

that being said i may have bit off more than I can chew, i realize that, but i press on.

It had the engine/tranny rebuilt with a 16g turbo about 20k ago. Right now i have a boost leak that i need to desperately fix, but other than that it is, ok.

I lurk around here a lot trying to soak up what knowledge there is. I am trying to find some locals as well, maybe Birmingham or Atlanta(the birmingham forum is void of posts) to try and learn with someone.

My eventual goal for the car is a Autocrosser, but for now it serves as a daily driver and i just want to get it as smooth running as possible, both engine wise and suspension. As with most of the older cars i am sure i need to change the sub-frame bushings, which is a task in itself.

I will continue to lurk, and try to get some pictures of the engine bay up as well as the rest of the car so maybe some people can point me in the right direction on what to switch out and what signs they may see.

Thank you

Kiba Stryker

At this point i am unsure. I have been looking up ways to find it, and will probably attempt next week as i am out of town this weekend, and have something everynight this week. It may just be some bad hoses because they dont look in the greatest of shape, but again i am not sure where the issue is right now.
