What do you think? My mods are in my profile I'm sure I forgot some.

I have about 1500 miles on my new engine. My set-up is with Ross forged pistons .020 over (when bored they used a deck plate) rings gap is set to spec. 4 layer head gasket, arp head studs, ported head etc. My question is I'm still burning oil I say about 1/2 quart a week. Is this normal? I know...

I'm thinking about going external waste gate but would like to see it first if you have a picture please let me see. If you are running an external did you have to remove the ac fan or use a small fan? Thanks

I can't remember if I read about swapping out cams out of an automatic dsm and installing them in to my 5 spd. I drive a 92 talon awd and I have cams from a 2g automatic. any info would be great . thanks

I'm rebuilding my motor now and I'm also porting the intake and head but damn check this picture out. This is how much I need to remove to gasket match on the exhuast side on the head. Should I remove all this? Thanks!!! http://stu.aii.edu/~alr181/exhaustside01.jpg

I'm looking into rebuild my tranny out of my 92 talon awd. I'm going to be using Evo III forks, and I can't remember where I read about using the 1st gear out of a galant so any info will be great about this. What else should I replace? I've rebuild many tranny's before but never a dsm but I'll...

I'm looking at the Frankenstein Level 3 - 54 trim/TDO6 3"inlet turbo, I was told it's biiger then the 20G but smaller then the FP Green. I'm looking to throw this turbo on my Talon that I'm rebuilding now. What do you guys think about this turbo? Any information would be helpful! Thanks

I came across this picture of a 1G with a 2g nose, does anybody have any info on this? I'm sure it's not a straight forward swap but have any of you did this? Any info would be helpful. Thanks

I've read many times about a home made MBC. What do I need at home depot or any hardware store to make this? Thanks

Well I bought the car knowing there was no comp. in the 4th cyl. I kind of figured it was a hole in the piston top. This is just an excuse to rebuild and go with forged pistons. What do you think?

I'm rebuilding my engine now and I'm looking for pistons. I want to run higher compression so do you guys recommened the 95 pistons or go to a forged pistons such as Wiseco or JE? Also which rings should I run? With either 95 pistons or forged? Thanks

Well I knew the 92 Talon AWD Turbo I just bought had a bad motor and no comp. in the 4th cyl. I figured it was a melted piston due to of course no comp. as well as oil every where coming from the 4th cyl area. So I pulled the motor and removed the head and sure enough 4 th pistin is melted...

Well guys I'm removing the engine today due to no comp. in one of the cyl. I'm thinking a nice hole in the piston. I bought the car the way it is with a nice amount of after market parts. I was looking at the Apexi downpipe and realized that the first bend from the manifold is 2.5" then goes...

Well I drove down to DC to pick up my 92 Talon TSI AWD. Not a bad drive at all took me about 2hrs. I had only seen pictures on the internet and never saw untill yesterday what I was buying. But what a deal, the car is super clean and has a brand new Bushcur Exhaust 3inch an a new Apexi'...

The other day I was searching and found 95 pistons for $32 each but I never book marked the site. Do you guys know where the cheapest to buy a set of these pistons? Thanks Drew

Came across a hell of a deal what do you think? 1992 Talon TSI AWD here is a link http://www.boosteddsm.com/mydsm.htm this is a link to the pervoius owner. But sold the car to me, it's how he got the car and a short story. I got a great deal on the car due to very low compresion in the third...

I have a extra Mitsubishi Starion intercooler sitting in my garage. Has anybody used this intercooler on their DSM? If so did you inlarge the ic pipes, to what size?

I'm looking for a logger. I've read that some use those pocket loggers where can I find one at? And how much do they run? Thanks

I'm going to rebuild my engine since it's only running off of 3 cyl. I want to run high comp. I have read that the Gen2 have a higher comp. 8.5 I believe but they are not forged correct? How are those Wiseco pistons? I also found other pistons with the comp ratio from 8.1, 8.5 and 9.1.

I just bought a 92 Talon awd turbo and the cars running off of 3 cyl so it needs motor work. I can get a hold of an 94 turbo engine really cheap I was told that it had the better pistons. Can I use the 94 bottom half then use the 92 head and everything will work correctly? Also how can I verify...
