Default My Build/Progress Pics

This is my awd 1990 Eagle Talon Tsi that I picked up last summer for $1800 w/ 92k miles on it, got it from Va.

Pics of when I got it, pretty much stock w/ a rebuilt 6 bolt engine, manley valve springs, k&n, s16g turbo, act pp, and a wally 255 pump. It need a few things but nothing major, missing timing belt cover and oil leak.

Abt a week of owning it, I fixed the oil leak (cracked oil pan and castle plug was loose). Installed hks 264/264 cams, replaced the fuel filter, new timing belt tensioner arm, and dejon tool intake.

Then a little later added a new K&n, 2g maf and evo 560cc's. Replaced the cracked v/c and v/c gasket. Also at this time I deleted all the emissions, a/c, cc and cleaned up the wiring and did a mini wire tuck.

Installed my afpr and converted my wiring harness over to 91-94 years by swaping two pins at the ecu and installe a chip so the tach would operate properly.

Abt a week ago my car would overheat after a 30 min drive and pushed coolant out of the over flow. Did a compression test and 1,2, and 4 were at 150 psi while number 3 was at 130 psi. Pulled the head and found that the waterjacket near #3 cylinder was the culprit.
