Hey, sorry for such a lame question but I searched around but couldnt find anything. I was just wondering what the deal was with the spoilers for 1gas? Were they only for turbocharged cars or was it also an option for the n/a model too? I was wondering because theres a car for sale on craigslist with the wing and it had the dual pipe muffler and the girl said she doesnt think its turbocharged when I asked :cry: . This just got me really confused, thanks for clearing it up! :confused:

yea some na's came with the wings
 
Yeah ive seen some without the wings, I just wasnt sure if n/a talons came with them. I was just really bummed that it had the wing and dual pip muffler and isnt turbo. But the girl said that the car had the special bump on the hood option. so Im keeping my fingers crossed.
 
Special bump in the hood option? All 2.0's had the hump, turbo or NA, its there b/c of the cam gears/cover. Only the 90 1.8's didn't have the hump, after that, they all had a hump.
 
I have a 92 n/a talon it has a wing and I know a few other guys around here have then as well. Most though i have seen are turbos. :talon:
 
My old non-turbo, it was a 91 Talon, had the 5 peice wing, the 2.0 hood, and had the dual tips so it's very likely that the car isn't turbo'd. Honestly, the only cars I haven't seen with the dual tip are the SOHC cars (1.8s).

Yeah that means she didnt really know about the car. She wasnt even positive if it was turbo or not. Thats why I was a little more optimistic.
 
Turbo and 2.0 NT had dual tip mufflers. All (i think) 1.8's had a single tip muffler.
