WL: 92 Eagle Talon TSi AWD

[DSMMIKE]

Picked it up this past sunday 3-14-10 from grand lake colorado. Its a white on white 92 awd auto.
Car is currnently at my parents in ft.collins colorado and im in steamboat on vacation skiing.


Upgrades:
3in Turbo back exhaust
stainless steet o2 housing with external dump
big 16g
slow boy racing cast exhaust manifold
supra sidemount w/ hard upper ic pipe and ghetto lower ic pipe
Forged internals on a rebuilt bottom end with approx 500 miles (slow boy stage 2) not sure on the brands yet
Slowboy stage 4 head (titanium retainers and springs & stainless steel valves) and stage 4 port work
Forced Performance stage 2 cams (not sure yet if their plain fp2's for fp2x's)
Magnus street sheet metal intake manifold with direct port n2o bungs
Walbro 255 fuel pump
Aeromotive adjustable fuel pressure regulator
Came with 550cc injectors but no way to tune replaced with 450's for the time being.
Also came with a big aluminum radiator im gonna install at a later date whe i get slim fans and also a fmic with gm maf and translator i might just sell

So far ive fixed up some haggard wiring that always goes to **** from heat on 1g dsms. cleaned up the cluster **** of vaccum lines. replaced the radiator with a spare for the time being. replaced a ball joint and tierod end.

Needs 2 front tires and an alignment bad, and theres a vaccume leak coming from either the throttle body gasket or intake manifold gasket im going to replace on saturday if i drive it back home instead of tow.


Paint on the front half is really good (doors up) minus the hood. The rear quarter is fading/ cracking but overall looks alot better than any of my previous dsms, and theres absolutly no rust except a little surface rust where theres a small dent on the rear quarter.

For now im just going to get it running and driving good and a tune. well see where if goes from there.

[DSMMIKE]

ya i has 2 running dsms! not for long though i gotta sell the daily :(

[DSMMIKE]

so its going to be faster then your old one
eventually
its a shame mike, i had such high hopes for you

what that i would go gay and buy a moostang? cuz i thought about it but couldnt afford a 98 yellow cobra

[spoonraker]

Just curious, what did you pay for that?

[Beans]

auto? :joe:
It's the only way to go if you have a high torque dsm. The only trannys that can hold the power!!

[toom1h]

Spoon - An amount you COULD afford pal!!

[Maas]

I lika dis very much.

[DSMMIKE]

Just curious, what did you pay for that?

2750

750 less than he was asking and i got him to throw in a big aluminum radiator and most of a front mount kit and gm maf and translator.

[slojeep]

damn man nice buy. depending on what happens to the jeep im considering finding a 1g. hope i can find another epic deal

[DSMMIKE]

im unfortunaly selling my 90 i would keep it if i could afford 2 dsms right now

[DSMMIKE]

Update:
-got a 4 wheel alignment

-got four new falken ze 512's 205/55/16s (would have liked to do something
like falken ** 452's in a 215 or 225/50/16 but i was under a time crunch and its all i could get an afford on a days notice.)

drove the car 450 miles home from ft. collins. ran into a little trouble the first attempt. I made it 26 miles from my parents house and the tranny went into limp mode (wont shift out of 3rd gear). so i turned around and went back. Spent 6 hours reading wiring diagrams checking the tcu and tracking wires. turns out 2 wires to the high/low temp sensor has frayed 1/4 from the plug from the air filter rubbing on it for a long time and it mush have shorted/grounded out sending it into limp mode. I solderd the wires up nicely and used liquid electrical tape on them to isolate them, and it fixed my problem. Drove stright through only stopping for gas and food on sunday without a single problem WOOT!!

Near Future Plans:
Fix the brakes (rotors and warped BAD) going to upgrade to the 1g big brakes from a 93-94 awd. They are a 2 pot caliper vs. 1 and the rotors are quite a bit bigger. Luckily i already have a set of the calipers laying around so all i need are new rotors and pads.
Pic of the small vs big
http://vfaq.com/proj-pics/BigBrakes/oldvsnew.jpg

2nd i need new motor mounts BAD going to buy a set of poly inserts and try and find a set of shot motor mounts so they are ready to drop in and go.

3rd Im going to buy dsmlink and a bigger set of injectors atlest 950cc probally bigger but going to do some research first.

4th going to upgrade to a 2g maf and my old intake and bov from maas.

Edit: 5th also rebuilding the throttle body with new shaft seals (common boost leak) and new biss oring and cap (also common boost leak) since the previous owner decided to rtv it shut and i have a spare to work with.

this should get me to where i want to be for a while and ready to really pwn some noobs. Oddly enough im really starting to like this automatic thing and i addicted to the o2 dump.

[jwcardy]

I have some parts off my 91gsx project that you might be interested in...completely powder coated front subframe with energy suspension bushings, control arms, steering knuckls with new wheel bearings and ball joints, and rebuilt powder coated stock front calipers with speed bleeders...also got stainless brake lines that have never been installed...
lmk if your interested...

damnit mike would you change your sig and avatar?

[DSMMIKE]

when i get pics of the new dsm

[KyleT]

gangsta man I wanna check it out sometime real soon and when you get dsmlink get some big ass injectors for e-85 you will love it. -Beans

thats the plan. Im having a ***** of a time finding dsmlink used on dsmtuners though, im gonna need an eprom ecu too mine in non eprom

[millertime]

is dsmlink a standalone or piggyback? I always thought it was standalone, but that post makes it sound like a piggyback thing.

its a piggyback but can do almost anything a standalone can.

[millertime]

gotcha

[flawlessTSI]

try dsmlink fourms there is allways part outs and alot of good used parts for sale there.

[DSMMIKE]

Well thanks to Evane ive been doing some research to a money saving alternative to DSMLink. Basically over the last 6 months its been discoverd and research that you can run an evo8 ecu in the 1g dsm with a little wiring. What makes this so usefull is that the evo8 eco is flashable and for only about 100 bucks for a cable i can reflash aka reprogram and tune the ecu myself. Im sourceing the parts for it at the moment
Parts List:
Evo 8 ecu 100 buck
tactrix cable 100 bucks
bad 1g ecu (to make adaptor harness) 15-25 bucks
95+ mitsu ecu plugs/pigtails (sourcing)
obd1&2 plugs probally relativly free
evo 8 knock sensor 66 bucks (plus i need a new knock sensor anyway)

then just some solder work on my part and it should be golden so hopefully for easily under 300 bucks ill be able to tune my car myself and change pretty much any setting on anything that i want. Plus ill be able to resell my ecu for about 100 bucks.

Oh and here are some pics i took of the car yesterday after washing it and really cleaning the engine bay.

Some are duplicates with different exposures

Looks like crap from the front has one fog light and on the opposite side the bumperis being pushed out by the supra sidemount. I paln on repositioning the sidemount to get better fitment and less ghetto

[Beans]

thats sweet yo I'm going to go research that ecu right now:woot:. And If you need a fog light I got a couple I think.

[DSMMIKE]

for now im just going to pull the other off since the one missing was probally removed to increase airflow to the IC

[Yngvar]

If you found any eprom ecus let me know thats whats keep my car down of now

[DSMMIKE]

Just bought all the stuff to make the plug anf play evo 8 ecu harness for 40 shipped. Also picked up a 2g maf for 45 shipped. just need an evo 8 ecu, knock sensor, and tactrix cable, and an lc1 wideband so about another 400 bucks lol

[slvr_skittle]

That evo8 ecu deal sounds like a good alternative to dsmlink

[millertime]

that sounds like a smoking deal, damn I wish something like that was available for the rx7.

[DSMMIKE]

orderd my lc-1 tonight hopefully get it by friday but we will see.
Also been doing alot of reading on writing rom's (the programming/tune on an ecu) and holy **** talk about a learning curve and im only 1/3 of the way to the half way point lol.

[KyleJ]

Sooo like 1/6th?

[DSMMIKE]

it wasnt meant to be correct it was meant to show the fried status of my brain

[DSMMIKE]

well i decided against doing the evo 8 ecu. I bought dsmlink and it will be here tuesday! hopefully picking up some 1000cc injectors wednesday, and then i can run e-85.

friday i went to install my old fmic from tessy and with the auto tranny the pipes dont fit. So im selling it and sticking with the supra smic. Also fixed the bumper on the pass side. previously one of the bolts holding it to the fender was broken so if was sagging. I also installed my old forge bov so i can hold more than 16psi once i get injectors.
Ill also be installing my old 2g maf setup on the car with the dsmlink and injectors this week. Sooooo hopefully i be running in the 20psi range for americruise.

[Yngvar]

what turbo will you be running?

[DSMMIKE]

big 16g

oh yes we will! hell it would been alot closer on the same psi (14) if i just got it tuned i was at like 10.1 afr

[D1sclaimer]

with a big 16g, 1000cc injectors, and E85, how much fuel pressure(base) do you plan on running?

[DSMMIKE]

rigth now base pressure is at 43psi i never really thought about having to change it im still a newb to e85

[Beans]

rigth now base pressure is at 43psi i never really thought about having to change it im still a newb to e85
just keep it where its at!

[Kelvin]

i run 50. lowers duty cycle.

[Beans]

i run 50. lowers duty cycle.

with my walbro it raised my dc when I went to 50 so I put it back down to to stockish.

[D1sclaimer]

How much were you boosting Beans? Don't Walbros pressure fall off after 75psi? Could that have been a factor or think its just cause the pump isn't pumping as much at higher psi?

[Beans]

Yeah that was probably my problem I was boosting 30+psi.

[Kelvin]

i was around 22-25 depending on what the car felt like doing.

[DSMMIKE]

Should probally update this.. I installed my dsmlink pte 1000cc injectors dejon tool 2g maf on 1g intake pipe, and 2g maf. Car is also now cornfed! She runs strong and ill hopefully be changing the spark plugs tomorrow to one range colder plugs gapped down to .25 because right now im getting spark blow out at 20-21 psi. Goal is mid low 12s at KRP during cruise night and from my benchracing that is being generously conservative.

[Yngvar]

You need a bigger turbo

[Beans]

You need a bigger turbo
why?

[KyleJ]

I think he'll be good on E85.

[DSMMIKE]

update replaced spark plugs and it pulls amazing boost still isnt steady because of a weak stock wastegate actuator but ill be picking up a holset one to hopefully cure that. And i also figure out a problem i was having with brake boosting to launch. It would start cutting out at 2500 rpm well thats because i was a noob and set the antilag to start at 2500 rpm. upped it to 3400 and now it doesnt do it. didnt actaully get to launch because the gf was with me but hopefully tomorrow she will be all tuned and ready to go.

[DSMMIKE]

Well my tubo blew on the way home from bellevue LAME!! Guess it didnt like 27psi pulls..... Im probally just gonna throw a 14b on it for a while and drive it.

[Yngvar]

when you go to up grade you should get a FP 68HTA

[supeRtunermatt]

why would he want an overpriced piece of ****?

[Yngvar]

the spool of a 16g and running 10.2 isn't **** to me

[DevilSperm]

Wouldnt a 3065 setup be nice for cruise night? :D

[DSMMIKE]

Wouldnt a 3065 setup be nice for cruise night? :D

lol i cant afford that. ive got something else in mind about the same size but journal bearing and internal wastegate

[DSMMIKE]

the spool of a 16g and running 10.2 isn't **** to me

you realize that is on a car that is from a racing team with lots of money and resources. and it was a 10.399. im tired of running babydick mitsu turbos.

[millertime]

HOLSET!!!!!!!!

[talon2008]

Holset 6 blade hx40 :D I have smim and shitty bc 272 cams and it still spools extremely fast for the size of the turbo. And yngavar whatever the **** your name is, id give you a 1000$ if you ran a 10.29 on that hunk of junk turbo. Your talking about EnglishRacing that went 10s on it. They have also made a stock bottom end 7 bolt go 9s.... Anything can happen with the right amount of money and the time to build it.

[DSMMIKE]

ive looked into holset. the cool thing is Bullseye makes a bolt on mitsu exhaust housing for it the shitty thing is that they want 425 for the internally gated housing now when 2 years ago it was only 200.... then theres the 300ish of an hx-35 and the 200ish in oil lines and ****

[talon2008]

Call up Bill Devine at bep and see what he can do for you... he told me 399$ for t3 .70 ar housing and I told him that hes ****ing nuts!!! After about 10-15 minutes of haggling I got him down to their original 199$ price. Im not sure but I think Joe at SlowBoy can get the .55 ar mitsu flange for 230$ shipped. Im not gonna try to tell you what to buy or anything but I noticed you have Link forums.... http://dsmlink.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48838

check that out and maybe it will sway your mind... the guy lives in the same general area as us... Missouri for people without Link forum access, he is making 570 fwhp on only 27 psi/e-85/t3 .70 ar hx40 ON A SINGLE wally255 UNREWIRED!!! stock 6 bolt....

Now that is some pretty serious power for the amount of boost he is shooting at it.

[talon2008]

And for your oil feed/return if your running no b/s go from the head with a 35$ kit from extremepsi.com and frozenboost.com sells stupid cheap ss braided lines/fittings for your return. I used -12 an and just welded a -12 bung on oil pan.

[DSMMIKE]

bought a new turbo today just another big 16g nothing special but i got a killer deal on it and well im broke so its whats gonna have to be fo now. orderd all my gaskets and **** for it too so hopefully mid next week it will be back together and ready for krp

I have a hard time believing those numbers with E85 on a single walbro. I think there is a correction factor at play here.

Im with roo there is no way.

[DevilSperm]

Dude is nuts running over 12.0:1 on E85.

Im betting his #s are right in line.

[roo]

It was dyno'd on a superflow but all the numbers have DJ next to them so I'm assuming some type of dynojet correction was done.

I know 570 hp on single stock wired walbro is maxed out enough on regular gas that the pump is unable to maintain fuel pressure. It's hard to imagine getting away with another 30% more fuel on top of that.

[DSMMIKE]

THREAD HIJACKED!!! ARHHH

[talon2008]

Idk, I made some pulls today at 15-16 psi and it ****ing RIPPED! Granted ill be installing a stocker 2g awd trans tomorrow replacing the shep stage 4 :(

[DSMMIKE]

Well ive installed the new turbo, a new bigger aluminum radiator, slim fan, fp oil feed and return lines, and changed my fuel filter for the first time since switching to e-85... I just finished making my plug adaptor to run an evo 8 maf. Im currently running a 2g maf but i got a good deal on my evo maf and a good deal selling my 2g maf so what the heck might as well. Im pretty sure i have a boost leak somewhere so tomorrow ill be doing a boost leak test and installing my evo 8 maf setup and retuning the car. hopefully it will be ready to rock after tomorrow.

[DSMMIKE]

couple logs from tonight

[DSMMIKE]

Haven't updated this in a long ass time lol.... Back at the end of September i spun a rod bearing while racing (and beating) Alley and Evane. I rebuilt the motor and have been dailying the car since on a shitty 91 octane winter tune. In december i got in an accident and ****ed up the front pass side of the car. So im on the hunt for a new shell for the car. Im looking at one tomorrow so by the weekend i could have one.

the plans for the car at this point will be to get the shell and prep it for my auto swap. I will be adding.
- external oil cooler
- larger tranny cooler
- FMIC
-Revised Lifters
Money permitting
-AN 6 fuel line and filter from tank to rail
-4130 Chromoloy front crossmember
-Bosch 044 fuel pump

My hope is to get it done and ready by the end of april.. it just all depends on how funds work out with getting a shell.

Im shooting for low 11s on this set up... But low 10s have been done on a very similar setup with the same turbo.. Hopefully ill be going back to a two tone 1ga :D I should know tomorrow evening.

[millertime]

hope this works out man, can't wait to see it out running around again.

edit: what are you gonna do with the current shell if you do get the one you're looking for? keep it and drop in a stock 4g63 and daily it?

[DSMMIKE]

hope this works out man, can't wait to see it out running around again.

edit: what are you gonna do with the current shell if you do get the one you're looking for? keep it and drop in a stock 4g63 and daily it?

its a possibility especailly because of the car im looking at but i finincally doing that would not allow me to get any goodies like a fmic, tranny coler, and oil cooler for alot longer.

and SOB the guy just texted me and someone is going to look at the car right now, and its against everything in me to make an offer on a car before i even see it... but i told him to let me know their offer if i feel comfortable beating it..

[DSMMIKE]

**** back to the drawing board the car just sold... Im really starting to get the itch bad to get back to working on something so the hunt continues...

[millertime]

man, you got some shitty luck sometimes. Sorry bud, good luck on your continued search.

[DevilSperm]

Mike, are you running E85? If not, I would save the money on the -AN for the fuel lines at this point. I ran 50/50 pump E85 and I had plenty of line. JMO

[DSMMIKE]

In the warm months i do run e-85

[DSMMIKE]

Well unless there is an act of god I should have a shell on tuesday.. Im spending more on it that I originally was hoping too so I might not be do as many goodies to the car right away. However I think i will be happiest with this shell as it is super clean and has had alot of maintence and been taken well care of! But it will be getting a FMIC and possibly tranny cooler if i can afford it before I do the major swappage.

[millertime]

color and mileage on the new shell?

[DSMMIKE]

you shall see when everything goes through :D

[Kelvin]

i have an oil cooler id sell you.

Theres the car it got delivered to me on tuesday. Have really touched it yet but plan to get out there and pull some of the manual specific stuff out this week so i can sell it.

Im trying to decide if i should do a battery relocation or if i should just run a small battery.....

Small battery will be 260 for battery and the bracket...

relocation will end up being like 100-175 depending on how i do it... but will be a pita

i have to do something with the battery as with my SMIM and FMIC the piping will hit the battery in stock location...

Ive currently decided to wait on the dual walbro set up untill this summer when i have more money and have a need for the extra fuel, as i need money for other things for this car right now..... I will probally still run an6 lines from the tank though.

[GC8U]

Is that Ali's old 1G?

[DSMMIKE]

no he had a 1gb like my current running dsm this is a 1ga, but alis old one is about 20 yards away.

[Beans]

here is how i did my battery relocation. i used one of these fuses on bolth sides of the wires to protect it incase it shorts out anywere and just used a thick amp wire and mounted the fuse block to the side of the bay by the trans mount. and just put the grounds to any were on the frame.

So I spent all day friday and saturday swapping over the drivetrain to the new shell and spent sunday rewiring the car and getting it running/ driving. It now runs like **** and drives. I wired up the maf wrong so that should fix the running problem. But ive got easily 3 more evenings worth of work cleaning up the wiring and looming it and just getting everything working correctly and installed.

also can a mod change the title of this w/l 92 Eagle Talon TSi AWD now a 91
