Ok, I got a 91 Talon TSI and I want to know if this combo sounds like a great combo to go fast:

Engine:
Garrett T04E 60Trim
Polished Front Mount Intercooler
Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator
680cc Injectors
GM MAF Translator
SS Fuel Lines
Custom Turbo Manifold (Tubelar)
Tial 38mm Wastegate
RFL Blow Off Valve
Stainless Oil Lines
Dejon Tool TB Elbo
2.5in intercooler piping
3in downpipe back exhaust
Megan Racing Muffler
Poly Engine Mounts
Manual boost controller
SS Clutch Lines
ACT 2600lb Clutch
ACT lightened flywheel
Under Hood Ball Bearing Shifter Bushings
Shift Plate Bushings

And Going In this week:

FP272 Cams
Moroso oil pan
Fidanza Adjustable Cam Gears
Kevlar Timing Belt
90 Oil Filter Housing
New Oil Pump (mine leaks)
Ballence Shaft Elimator Kit
Cometic HP Headgasket
ARP Head Studs

Now does that sound like a good setup for making up to around 400hp or do you think I am missing things, or dont need things. Or would do something diffrent? I just want imput. I have only had this car for like 6 months and never hit the track with it yet. But I have always been into turbos. I had a sunfire that I turboed before this, but it got too expensive and now I love my DSM.
:talon:
 
Hahah I have looked at that thing about 100k times.... and I seem to have everything there.... but what next... are the cams a good upgrade.... is there anything else I should start doing... And when do I need to consider better pistons or rods. :talon:
 
What is the overall power goal of the car and tuning is the most important part of the puzzle, what you use and how its tuned will determine the power and reliability of the car. What are your plans there, I see you already have the wide band. Also how does the car run with everything on it right now?
 
I have the MAFT and a super afc right now to tune with.... I might update to a DSM link or a AEM computer some time, but right now the MAFT and the Super AFC is treating me well.
 
Oh yes.... anytime I hear anything out of the ordanary I check it out, and I tune it up all the time, and change oil with synthetic every 3000mi.. Good K&N oil filter, and all that jazz
 
i dont see a gm maf there, you could use one of those,....(altho i dont see how your using the maft without one) you might already have one tho
