Okay, I'm getting ready to really ramp up the power on my '92 Talon. She has 16x,000 miles (I'm not sure if the motor was ever rebuilt). Barely any smoke... a few puffs here and there, and none that can be seen under WOT. Pulling 18 hg of vaccuum at ilde 24-25 when in gear and decelerating, no rod knock at all.

Here's what I have on hand or already on the way:
ECMLink v3 in an ECU converted for Turbo (knock board)
FIC 650 Injectors
Walbro 190
Evo III Big 16G /w ported hot side
VRSF Short Route FMIC
FP Intake w/ reducer coupler
4" K&N Air Filter
3 Bar GM Map Sensor
GM IAT
Innovative LC-1 Wideband
Greddy BOV

I'm looking at picking up a used ACT 2600 (not sure of the condition, but the guy I'm buying it from is pretty upstanding) because the F1 POS that was installed in the car before I bought it is making a hell of a racket on decel.

Is there anything I'm missing or should be looking to get? Opinions are welcome, just make sure it's constructive.

Thanks!

Actually, you have a nice list there. Start out with that and go from there. Honestly atleast you were smart enough to go with the link. Some guys want to throw a bunch of parts on and never think about tuning. And I agree with the f1. Imo big pos.

If that ACT 2600 doesn't work out for you, I have a used one with 4k miles I will be listing shortly. Pics if interested.
 
ECMLink is installed. My fuel pump and injectors are going in today after I dial in airflow. I'm waiting for SD until my Turbo comes in today.

I might be intetested in that clutch. How much are you asking? Still have the alignment tool?
 
Good points. I already have a Greddy BOV that is still recirculated. I won't be recirculating after I switch to SD though.

I have a Greddy SP Elite that was on my 200sx that will be going onto this car when I can afford to have the exhaust done. I'm planning on a 3" turbo back (thankfully Kansas doesn't do emissions testing, and my car has already been inspected for the state).
