    im thinking of just getting a 95-96 eclipse front bumper, and i was wondering if it would bolt up just right? anything else that i need to do?
  2. CEL comes on after filling washer fluid...

    About a few days ago, I was driving and noticed my windshield washer light came on, so I filled it up and then as soon as I did, the CEL came on. I had only let the car sit for a few minutes, and then the CEL came on outta nowhere... to my knowledge, nothing is broke with my car... I just don't...
  3. GF's Talon acting very weird... Please help ASAP.

    My GF has a 95 Talon TSI AWD with a bad history, originally the car came with a front mount and all the goodies, but were removed when sold. Another guy owned it and his history is unknown, and then she bought the car for $5000.She's 17, she let some of her friends drive her car and they got...
  4. Do they make gauge mounts like these for the 2G?

    http://store1.yimg.com/I/machv_1842_75718827I was thinking of getting something like that for my 2G... but first I gotta know if they would fit a 2G, they said it fits a 1G.
  5. What gauges will I need?

    I tried to do a search but couldn't find a thread that had the exact question.I have a boost gauge installed, but I was wondering if there are any other gauges that I need to get?There's so much confusion over various gauges.I'm going to be getting a bigger turbo / exhaust /...
  6. I'm blessed...

    I know some of your girlfriends may not be into cars, or even may hate them...I got a girlfriend a few weeks back, and she owns a 95 Talon TSi AWD (5 speed) talk about a match.I look at it this way, she can't nag me for buying car parts. ROFL
  7. Are your friends like mine?

    Me: I'm gonna get a new turbo, downpipe, exhaust, probably a few new things Friend: You need wheels Me: :toobad:Appearance is the least of my worries, I think I'll lower my car on stock wheels...Figure what, wheels can be around $600 or so? That would get you a few things for your...
  8. This is what an EVO bumper would look like on a DSM...

    They should make a bumper like this, it's almost like a C-West kit.
  9. Possible electric/battery problem?

    I went to go move my car into the garage, as I'm starting it up, I hear this squirly type noise when the ignition begins -- and then I see my car go from 1200 rpm, to 2000 rpm and then sink back down slowly...So I turn the car off, my power locks don't work, my CD player reset itself and...
  10. Ratio of finding an AWD DSM?

    For atleast 250 miles from here, only 2 AWD DSMs are available...That's quite far for a car.I notice a lot of people are able to to find AWD Talon's and Eclipse's left and right -- how is this possible? I keep finding FWD. Are there more AWD's out there than FWD?
  11. RWD and AWD have the most fun

    I'm kind of in a car crisis, I've got a 2ga Eagle Talon TSI (fwd) and I like to drive it, but sometimes I wonder what having AWD or RWD would be like. Because in my opinion, FWD is very limited, and it seems RWD and AWD have the most fun (good launches, traction, drifting) so I'm really...
  12. Sign in if drivetrain doesn't matter to you...

    I've had 2 FWD cars previously, and my Talon is FWD, but I don't mind, I'm not a stoplight racer, or a heavy modder who goes to the track and races. My days of street racing (not in my Talon) are pretty much done with, so basically I just like FWD for driving around, because that's really what I...
  13. Does a turbo timer also warm up your car?

    I heard from someone that a turbo timer can also warm up your car? Kind of like a keyless remote entry would, I guess I don't know too much about it, but does that make sense?
  14. Grinding in reverse and sticky clutch...

    Let me first start off by saying that I live in South Dakota, the high today was 24 degrees (above, not below)So I went out to start my car this morning, and normally I double clutch, back out and let it warm up... I usually start up the car from the cold and then go into reverse and let it...
  15. Anyone here with a stock DSM?

    Or somewhat stock DSM?All I have is a TurboXS Type S BOV and an Autometer Boost Gauge, and recently I've been thinking of just leaving my Talon TSI (FWD) stock, I may have to replace the exhaust manifold, and get a boost controller, but other than that -- I'm going to leave my DSM stock. I...
  16. How are DSMs after 100k?

    I was thinking of getting an AWD and selling my FWD, but a lot of DSMs for sale in the classifieds are over 100k miles, just wondering -- how good are the engines after that?
  17. Contemplating on whether or not to keep my TSI...

    I live in South Dakota, the weather here is unpredictable -- so it can rain, shine or snow any time, and I've been thinking "Do I really need a FWD? I mean most of the time I seem to just spin my tires."I've been thinking of moving to AWD, for a couple of reasons. Better launching (for...
  18. Custom places for gauges, not visible to anyone else?

    Recently I just got a turbo timer and I wanted to display it somewhere in the car, but after talking to a buddy of mine he recommended for me to hide it some where. I also want to hide my boost gauge somewhere -- but the problem is, I don't want to rip up the car or go overboard. I was wondering...
  19. Is an EGT gauge worth it?

    I did a search and it really didn't answer my question...Basically that I've heard EGT can be helpful and pointless... helpful being tells you the temp of your car, and tells you if you're running lean or rich... and then pointless is kind of like -- if you get it -- what's it going to do...
  20. Where to buy door lock sensors (switches)?

    Considering that most door lock sensors on 2G DSMs have a tendency to go bad, where can I purchase door lock sensors? DSMparts.com doesn't sell them, and I don't want to try DSMtraders (I've heard mixed things)What is the part number from a 2ga 1996 Eagle Talon TSi? That way I could go to...
  21. Urgent help needed...

    My car alarm practically goes off every time I open my door and I keep trying to open and close my door but it won't stop, after 30 to 45 seconds it finally stops, but I can't seem to get the factory alarm to stop. What do I need to do? This is getting really annoying...
  22. Does DEFI make mounting cup holders for gauges?

    All I really need is just a boost gauge, and my current set up is rather tacky. I was wondering if DEFI makes a cup holder that I could place behind my steering wheel, to mount there... I don't need a visor or anything like that, just a mounting cup holder for the gauge, anyone know where I...
  23. Turbo that spools around 4 or 5k?

    Currently the T25 spools around 2700, and builds full boost about 3-3500.... now it's kind of a cool thing to have quick boost, but really it kind of kicks my own butt in the end. I was wondering what kind of turbos would actually spool longer and hit full boost around 4-5k? Redline for a FWD...
  24. Mercury Cougars with turbo wings?

    Has anyone else seen this around in their city?I've seen two Cougars with turbo wings (GST/GSX) driving around -- and they don't look good at all. The people who put them on their Cougar must think their car is going to be turbo. :laugh:
  25. Port & Polished Manifold vs. Evo III Manifold?

    A exhaust manifold is my next purchase, however I am curious as to which one is the best buy. I've heard the Evo III manifold will give me 20% more airflow, but I haven't heard the same for a port and polished manifold -- are they equal? Also, is the Evo III manifold a universal manifold for...
  26. I can't find exactly what this is...

    When I start up my car, I will hear a little rattle, type of screetching noise. When I press the accelerator, I hear it, and it's kind of like a shreak. Going from 1st into 2nd, when the accelerator is applied heavily -- the noise is at its loudest. However, when pressing lightly on the...
  27. I think I want to become a mechanic.

    I have encountered a minor problem with my DSM, and I don't know what exactly it is. I've had it for almost a month now and I've been looking for answers left and right. It's almost like a 'quest' to find the right answers.I first went to a local import shop, I asked the owner if he'd be...
  28. Reconnecting solenoid for blow off valve?

    I'm thinking of returning my car to stock, and I have an aftermarket BOV, currently not recirculated, and I can get my old 2G BOV back, and I want to know, if I hook it back up, how can I run 12 psi without pushing 14psi (since the solenoid is removed, I could boost up to 14 psi) Would it cost...
  29. Replacing a bolt for my exhaust manifold.

    I've got a bolt missing from the corner of my exhaust manifold, and that is what's causing my exhaust leak ... I'm not interested in getting a new manifold at the moment. I just need to know if I have to special order one bolt or if I can go to a hardware store and find one to be put in...
  30. Exhaust leak

    Recently I popped my heatshield off and I took a look at my exhaust manifold, a corner bolt had come off, it appears the end of the bolt was melted, and I was hearing a hiss/rattling noise when revving...Is this something simple enough to fix with just another bolt to be put in, or do I need...
  31. Safe to drive with a missing bolt from exhaust manifold?

    I took my heatshield off a few weeks ago and I noticed that I had a loose bolt that came out and was sitting on my turbo, and I'm trying to either find a bolt to reput in, or get a new exhaust manifold...Is it safe to drive with a missing bolt for a while? I'm trying to locate a bolt and...
  32. What is 10psi to the wheels?

    I've heard 170hp, is this true?What would 12 and 14 psi be?Thanks. ;)
  33. what is this noise?

    i'm driving home from work, and i go from 1st, give some gas into 2nd and do the BOV... but when the turbo was kicking in when i was going to hit 2nd, it made like a 'high pitched' noise before you hear the normal turbo kicking in... this was just a second or two before i heard the normal turbo...
  34. where should i put my next gauges at?

    i currently have a dash bezel with a boost gauge and i'm waiting upon getting a EGT soon...now i want to put the rest like air/fuel, oil, fuel pressure somewhere that they aren't as obvious has a tripod... any ideas where i can do this without ripping things out? i was at a car shop...

    hey guys, i have been trying to locate a oem front bumper, rear bumper, fenders for my 96 talon tsi -- any idea of where i could look? ive searched ebaymotors, dsmtrader and the classifieds on her -- and it seems usually i find a bumper every 2 weeks or so set at around 130 (i would actually pay...
  37. a 97-99 Eclipse Front bumper...

    I'm considering getting a Eclipse front bumper to replace my Talon's front bumper, and I was wondering -- is there any thing I need to get, to make sure it will fit? I just want the bumper to fit, nothing more, nothing less. A 97-99 bumper with 96 Talon headlights.Thanks in advance :thumb:
  38. need some advice with shifting

    i was out and about for a few minutes tonight, and i came to a somewhat small hill and i had been trying to find a certain spot around town...anywho, i go up and i come to a complete stop, i let off the brakes a little bit and i notice that this would be a somewhat challenge for me... (im...
