I recently got a 96 Talon TSI AWD
This is my first DSM, I previously had 2 Mustangs, and I have to say I have fallen in love!
The car has 107,000 miles, with 2,000 on a rebuilt motor and trans.

It's a got a 6 bolt swap in it, a little 14b turbo, cold air, upgraded intercooler piping, 650cc injectors, apexi SAFCII, 4" straight pipe exhaust, it's running 16lbs of boost right now. It runs pretty good I must say. It's so much different then a V8. Once it gets in boost it feels like a rocket ship.
Also has 18"Rotas, tokico adjustable shocks, sprint racing springs, and sprint racing sway bars
It was also tuned by Jake Montgomery, if you know who that is.
I now have the quickest car in my school :cool:

He said the car ran 13.9's with the stock motor, and i'm just wanting it to run low 13's, Think with a good driver its capable?
Here are a few pictures, I'm new to the whole DSM world, so if you have any suggestions let me know.

Thanks, Ryan

this help?
 
I will go look at the turbo here in a few. Owner also said it has a Walboro 255, any way to check?

Yep. Can you hear it whining at idle? If so, its defienetly a wally 255. Second you can take out your back seats and go into the fuel tank to check. Type the serial number on the side of the pump into google and it will tell you what you need to know. Nice car btw i love purple talons!
 
Does your talon have an upgraded fuel pump? If not i would recommend a walbro 255. With that you should be able to boost to 17psi roughly and on Drag radials you should be able to make mid to low 13s. nice car very clean for a 96.
 
When you replace the spark plug wires can you post up some close up shots of your coils? I am wanting to do that with my coils, I hate where they mount oem.
