I don't know if this has been asked before but I would like to know if a set of FWD lowering springs will work on a AWD car(91 talon awd). Most places sell diferent springs for AWD and FWD cars. I assume that front springs will work fine since both AWD and FWD setups are the same but what about...

I'm buying a CF hood for my 91 Talon but haven't yet decided which brand to get. I've narrowed it down to the VIS racing OEM style hood and the TC Sportline OEM hood. Both have the same prices so that is not a deciding factor. I know that VIS racing is a well known brand, but anybody out there...

I have a few questions concerning the 17C turbo(aka Frank Jr.). I compared the sizes of the compressor wheel vs. the big16G wheel and they are almost identical. There is the difference in the blade pattern of course since the 17C wheel looks just like a big 14B wheel. The thing is, performance...

Hey guys, a friend of mine just upgraded his VR4 fuel pump and gave me for free his old 3000VR4 fuel pump. I know this is a direct bolt on for my 1G Talon AWD and being a denso pump I'll asume it will be as quiet as the stocker. It is a 180lph pump so my question is basically how much boost can...
