    2G Bone Stock GST 97

    I'd go with link as your first step for upgrades. Then wideband, boost gauge, maybe water temp or oil temp or egt for now until you decide what else you want. Those will be essential parts to your build though. I've had the 3 gauge pillar pod in the past, it's nice to have as long as your gauges...

    If you still haven't even gotten the car yet, you are getting way ahead of yourself. You will need to be putting your time and some money into maintenance first. Iso recommend changing all the fluids, filters, and belts as a start for your project. Like you said, you need it to be reliable...

    How do you plan on doing your build ? All at once with all the proper supporting mods for the power mods ? Or piece it together as you go?

    2G Bone Stock GST 97

    Being able to log everything, post logs, self tune, watch everything in real time. It's a good thing to have for engine management.

    2G Bone Stock GST 97

    dsmlink would be a great first mod. It sounds like you have a little bit of an idea of what you want out of the car, and if you plan on getting it in the future anyways. Why wait to read about it? You can always start right now.

    Update AC is fixed. The cable by the ecu needed adjusting. Still have the idle problem. My idle is still a little rough and drops when a load like my AC is applied. I checked my iac/isc and it checks good. I also got abrand new one and replaced it to see if it was bad even with proper resistance...

    Evo dsm subie meet august 29th!

    Hey everyone, there's going to be a meet this weekend on Saturday the 29th. We are trying to get as many dsms out there as possible. We do have a Facebook page if you aren't on there already. The meet is planned for 8 pm but we might meet up earlier to cruise over as a group. Please let me know...

    Okay, I think the weird ticking noise is my pcv. Someone told me since my idle is jumpy it is the ball(?) on the inside to let air out and not in going back and forth due to the idle. I'm going to test my iac to see if that could be an issue, and also a blt. Also, my ac is no longer blowing cold...

    Okay, so checked out the car in a dark garage. Wasn't able to see any kind of arcing. I took out one of the spark plugs, and the top seemed a little loose. I'm going to replace them today to see if that fixes or changes anything. I will keep you updated. Also, if any other ideas come to mind...

    Okay, got it started and the timing belt replaced. Replaced the cas which now it starts. While it is running, it is running rough, rougher than before it died. No belts were snapped, and it was off maybe 1 or 2 teeth in timing.There is some weird noises, almost like uncontrolled sparking like...

    Update on the talon. It isn't getting a spark and isn't getting fuel. Fuel goes to the rail, then no further. Also my timing belt is a bit shredded in a spot about 8 inches long and 1/4 inch wide on the side, but still together. Didn't notice the first time looking until I cranked it a few times...

    Hi, today in the parking lot at work, I noticed a ticking noise when I started my car. It sounds like its coming the timing belt area. I live about 25 minutes away from work, and the car made it almost all the way until I pulled into my neighborhood and then it died on me. It will crank but...

    Help! Anyone near Seattle/Everett

    Yes if you don't mind letting me know what the problem was. I recently am getting a ticking around the belt area, sounding like metal is hitting something, but my car actually died on the way home and now it's down until I can figure this out.

    Hey so I recently bought a black box ecu for my tsi awd. It came from a 98 gsx. I swapped it and then received a check engine light . Evap code. Swapped it back to my old ecu, no cel. Could one ecu be bad?

    2g driving across the country

    @AWDPetmitsu She didn't like sitting on the seats for 65 hours lol. The seats aren't very comfy so next time we make a drive like that she will have an extra cushion. Also, she agrees that it is better for the car if we can just ship it and put the miles on the Uhaul instead.

    Yes a blanket was brought along. It came in use as a pillow more than a blanket. We are taking 10, but we have quite a few detours along the way to see things. Well I think we are going 10 anyway. Right now in San francisco with no problems!

    Purchasing a Talon TSI AWD, good deal?

    Okay. I see them. It seems like it needs some tlc if nothing else after you do all the rest of the maintenance. No rust at all?

    Boost leak

    You can make a tester and find your leaks easily in a day, as long as you have the correct tools to make it. Or if you're lucky, a local dsm group might have one laying around to lend you. Or local car group I general.

    Purchasing a Talon TSI AWD, good deal?

    It sounds like a sweet deal to me for that price. $300 and a xbox? I don't like xboxs and actually don't play very many video games so I would jump on it. But who knows what all that could be wrong with it. Ifor you're willing and able to fix it, I'd do it. Pics if you get a chance

    Resolved Noob here, researching Turbo Upgrade to 300hpish?

    Make sure you don't rush into any cars, I'd suggest that you look for a good one that is close to exactly what you want. Or if you see one withat a great deal and needs a little work, and are willing to work on it, get it. Good luck with the search! I'll also be keeping my eyes open for you.

    So I talked it over with the wife, and she wants to drive. She has it planned out to where we will be hitting a lot of spots on the way that we won't have the chance to see any time soon, and also family along the way. So it looks like I'll be doing all this extra caution maintenance !

    If it opens sooner, it will be able to cool the system earlier preventing it from reaching higher temps?

    Resolved Noob here, researching Turbo Upgrade to 300hpish?

    300hp won't be enough for long. When I went from my modded talon to my stock talon, I'd go a little crazy with the power difference. Once you get a taste of power, you will want more.
