I'm new to the import game bought a 1995 eagle talon tsi fwd. I've always been a muscle car guy but always wanted a dsm, an awd would of been better but got a good deal. When i bought the car the prevous owner bought a 3" cat back exhaust, which i installed, a 3" fmic both from cxracing, and a act stage 3 clutch. The clutch is out and im taking it in here real soon to get it replaced, and the cv axles, wheel bearings, and spindles. I would do the work myself but dont have a garage yet to work on it, hoping by this summer i will. This car will be my DD bought it with 80k miles (not bad), when i started it up sounded good no ticking or abnormal sounds, turbo is good to. I've read about the 3" fmic with a stock throttle body, would it be worth gettin the 2.5" piping or just upgrading the throttle body. I'm wanting to beef up the hp to, but im not going to be one of those buy a big ass turbo first people. What are some things to upgrade to get ready for a nice size turbo.
