1G 90' Talon with Colt TB?

[Eric M]

Hey there guys i just got my self a 90' AWD Talon. and the guy that i got it from thinks that its a colt throttle body...is this even possible? cause i know that the 90 is the bastard year for DSM's where nothing is the same. and i was also wondering if cause its a 90, i would be able to throw on a 93 N/T throttle body? or will i be missing some vac. lines? thanks alot

take a picture... cuz i have a 90 talon tsi and i have the same throttle body as any other 1st gen turbo i've seen and it's stock. I have no idea why someone would put a colt throttle body on tho... i know nothing about the colts .

The none turbos are flanged for a hose coupling, the turbo cars have a bolt on elbow.

It is possible that your car has an 89 colt gt throttle body, it is the same as a 90 turbo throttle body, but a little smaller. Actually, I just bought a 90 dsm throttle body for my colt gt turbo, it is an upgrade for them. Check this out:

This is a comparison of the two, the colt turbo came with a 4g61t, basically a 1.6l version of the 4g63 hope that helps
