My 1,000+WHP 1992 Eagle Talon TSi AWD Drag car

[Vin1021]

This car has been in Turbo magazine and DSport. I am trying to order the issues it was in but just my luck they said they are out of those two issues. FML! I had them but friends of mine "barrowed" them and lost them.

Sick DSM always liked them.

Thanks, WRXscooby!

Is this road legal? I know we have road legal dragsters in the Uk, but I couldn't see a plate on any of the pictures.

1000 whp and no slicks...? Pretty insane, bro.

Can we get an updated pic or an updated OP?

 

[Vin1021]

There are updated pics one page back. It does have slicks. The car is at a shop being dynoed with the new ignition. Should have it back after labor day. I just updated the ignition to a Spark Tech -Drag 2- sequential CDI ignition system. I think I put some pretty descriptive posts up a page back. But I will answer any questions you may have. Thanks for the compliments!
Clark, yes the car is still road legal aside from the side exit exhaust and the dogbox which can be annoying to drive on the street. Other than that the only thing holding it back from the street is the cost of running this car on a day to day basis.

 

[Vin1021]

See? Its got slicks on it.

 

[Not_A_Guest]

Gotcha. Pretty sweet. A lot better than the Talon that's in GT6

One thing I have not seen in this thread is a dyno sheet.

 

[Vin1021]

I know. My fault. I'll post some dyno sheets.

 

[Vin1021]

Yeah I've always wondered why Kaz chose to put the fwd n/a version of the car in the game. At least they put the Galant VR4 in the game.

 

[Vin1021]

All buttoned up. Back to the dyno on Wednesday! Excited to see what kind of numbers it puts out with the new 250mj Spark Tech Drag 2 sequential ignition and coil on plug setup.

 

[Not_A_Guest]

What kind of effect do you think it'll have?

 

[Vin1021]

It should allow for a cleaner hotter spark. Much more efficient than the waste spark setup I ran previously. Sequential is definitely the way to go.

 

[Vin1021]

It will allow for more power to be produced.

It will allow for more power to be produced.

Just so you know the Mods frown on double posting. If you have to add something 4 minutes later, use the edit button.

Nice car btw.

 

[Vin1021]

I don't normally do that. I was posting from my cell phone and couldn't get it to edit.

Just out of curiosity, being from jersey area, I used to live in Bristol pa, I was wondering if you remembered a dsm shop in central jersey, I think it was called Gran Turismo?

Another thread made me think of it because of their logo similarity of the games logo, but I could not find anything about them online.

Anyway, awesome car, good luck with it!

 

[Vin1021]

Hmmm, no I can't say I've heard of them. In NJ I know of Iveytune and Turbotrix.
My Talon is originally from Iveytune. It was a low 9 sec car when Sean Ivey owned it.
Thanks
