Hows it going fellas? My name is Brian. I live in a town called Point Marion, PA. Its about 50 miles south of Pittsburgh and just north or Morgantown, WV. I had moved alot when younger but been back here for 12 years now. I am your typical 20 something and enjoy hanging out with my friends, bowling, football, etc etc. I dont want to bore you.

I just picked up a modded AWD 93 Talon TSI. It has Ported 16G, 550cc Injectors, Aeromotive Adjustable FPR, 2g MAS, Greddy Type S BOV, Upper Hardpipe Kit, Super Sidemount, ACT 2600 Clutch Kit, Unorthodox Lightweight Flywheel, 3" exhaust to Apexi N1 Muffler, SAFC, Cross Drilled Rotors

I picked the car up for a steal and have some money left so I might throw a few more mods at it. I am a regular poster over on 3si.org and in teh 3/s forum here on AF. I also started posting again over at DSMsource and will post here some now as well.

Hey whats up, new dsm guy here from upstate NY. My name is Eric(go figure), Im 22, and ive been into dsm's for about 5 years now. My current daily is a 98 GSX I just picked up about a month ago. Seems alot of people have seen this car for sale and or know the kid who owned it. It was sold to me as stock, but Im pretty sure she hasnt always been that way. Either way It needed a shitload of work but I got it for a good price and I had most the shit, so its all good now.

the color is cayenne red pearl, the steelies on it are the winter rims, I have the stock 17's too, and am looking to get ahold of some nicer ones







Well thats about it, I just wanted another forum to hang around on, figure Id sign up here and introduce myself. Later

[psycho_maniac]

Turboing your RS and swapping in a turbo engine are two very different beasts to tackle. Make sure you do a lot of reading and research on these boards before you actually start doing anything...

[psycho_maniac]

I've already done reading on turboing my car but I guess if you say its different I should read on that subject then. I was going to turbo my car but a guy I know is selling his and thats just easier for me. Finding a trust worthy mechanic around here is not.

Your trying to swap in a 4g63 in place of a 420A right? If yes, that is VERY different than just turboing your 420A.

I just thought of something...we should have pictures added with this thread. Anybody else agree? I would say limit it to one or two photos just so it dosn't get really cluttered.
