So I just picked up this 95 talon tsi... I paid 4k for it knowing there was alot of work to come... For the most part its a solid car with a 2.3 stroker with 6k on the motor and trans... The receipts say it has a stage 3 trans and clutch... It had a .70 trim turbonetics turbo, s/s tubular manifold, tial wastegate, venom sheetmetal intake, it is running a older version of wolf 3d v4 ecu with a MSD ignition...
For the bad: It looks like the guy put alot of money and not enough time... There is rats nest of wires under the dash what looks like he wired it right with solder and shrink wrap but he didnt trim them to length, so its not that bad, they also hacked the exhaust, I'm a aerospace high freq tig welder and aircraft fabricator so thats definetly not going to cut it, it looks like they put 2 1/2" into 3" and filled the gap with weld with a total rice tip, I have a appt. Sat morning to have 3" all the way out with a apexi tip...
So just wondering what you guys think... Good or bad deal???
