im lookin at an awd talon turbo. tsi or whatever but he wants 4500. I like the car, has a new stage 3 clutch, new struts, new intake, and is pretty clean. its stock turbo and has a poor bov. it will come with a front mount thats not on (he says it will lag if he puts it on cuz the turbo is stock)... seems to run well, has a bit of a deep idle...


whats your opinions...

 

find as many as you can on ebay and track their sales. research kbb.com to get a general appraisal value. make a list of all the defects and upgrades. ask for proof of purchase on things like the clutch.
by the time you finish, you should know where you want to be price wise.

 

what year is the car, how many miles are on it? What do you mean by poor BOV? Do you have a link to it or any pictures? If its a 1g then that price is gonna be a rip off, but a 2g it may be justified, depending on the shape

 

i agree with TheEngineer, if its a 1G its not worth it but a 2G that would be a pretty good price. Poor bov? like some knock off ebay sh*t?

 

Try and get some pics and more info on it so we can help you out a lil better bro

 

sry, totaly spaced puttin the year... its a 2g, idk exact year, i think 95-96 though.i can try to get some pics. the bov is a cheep *** one that was probly bought off ebay for 20 bucks.... it looks like **** and sounds like ****. the front bumper is black and the rest of the car is blue. he bottomed out real bad with the original bumper and had to get a new one. hes a buddy of mine so ive known him since he got the car. and i know he got a new clutch and struts. ill see if i can get some pics today.

thanks guys.

 

it is a 96 im pretty sure.

 

sounds like a decent deal if it's in good shape.

 

What is the mileage. That will play a big role in the price. It seems like a decent price, but if it has high miles and has been beaten on, you could be looking at a new motor fairly soon
