New project (Not a GVR4 but close) ;)

[Kenny_Kline]

I am sure you all remember my thread where I blew up my motor in my Galant (cracked pistons-broken ring lands). I expect lots of hate and not much love but I like it better that way. Well here is an update on the car.

I ditched the Galant and picked up a 94 Talon TSi. 6bolt swapped, AWD on a 4bolt rear. I almost have it back together. Should be a fun ride. If it stays together, you will see ALOT of me at the track. Made a few changes in the setup. I am making this a reliable street driven car. Here are some progress pics.

Details:
Swapped the S16G to an EVO3 16G (extra 50cfm) downward facing, ditched the old school logger/SAFC/GM MAF/Keydriver chip for ECMlink V3 running speed density, no longer running 560cc injectors-now on 750cc, running a Wiseco forged piston raising compression from 7.8:1 to 9.1.1. Everything else is basically the same: 6bolt 4G63 ARP studs, ACL bearings, 2G head ported, +1mm valves, 272cams, blah blah blah. I picked up an ETS 26x10x3 intercooler and have 2.5" aluminum piping for it. I dont want to spend alot of time talking about it as I will probably end up blowing it up anyways but here you go... the car:

If you have any questions. feel free to ask.

If it's tuned right and maintained why would it blow up? Maybe not enough oil changes?

 

The car looks good and it looks like you're heading towards a good direction. I'm more of a 1GA guy myself though.
Evo 16g,9:1 Compression with a 2g head combo should be a powerful street DD.
I'm guessing you plan on doing pump gas for the street and race gas for the track? You guys have e85 up there yet?

I want to see how far pump gas will bring me. E85 later down the road... we will see. I would love to run 11s consistantly on pump with the E316G
