1990 EAGLE TALON TSI (turbocharged sport injection) All Wheel Drive

I am (i believe) the 3rd owner of this DSM, and did not do any of the mods myself.
This car also looks stock, with no stickers, no flashy wheels, or any of that so the car does not attract unwanted attention.
Paint is in great condition, no rust, and interior is also mint.
Car has never been dyno'ed by me, but i have been told its around 240-250whp.
Runs great and pulls very, very strong.

I will provide a list with the mods, new parts, specifications, and considerations:

MODIFICATIONS:
-2.5” mandrel bent downpipe
-2.5” test pipe, catalytic converter removed
-2.5” mandrel bent catback exhaust with Magnaflow “sleeper” look muffler (pretty quiet and stock looking for an aftermarket exhaust)
-Ported second generation DSM exhaust manifold
-Ported turbo exhaust housing
-Ported oxygen sensor housing with external dumptube mod
-Fuel pump rewired for greater flow
-Fuel/Engine kill switch (safety and theft deterrent)
-K&N air filter w/ aircan hack/Maf mod
-Shifter bushing modification
-OEM blow off valve crushed to handle greater levels of boost (running around 15 psi)
-Turbo Boost Guage (Mounted on Pllar)
-Air/Fuel-Mixture Guage (Mounted on Pillar)
-Megan Racing Front Strut Bar

NEW PARTS:
-New Exhaust Manifold Gasket (summer 2005)
-Valve Cover Gasket (Summer 2005)
-Water Pump Kit (Spring 2005)
-Camshaft Oil Seal (Spring 2005)
-Timing Belt (Spring 2005)
-Balance Shaft Belt (spring 2005)
-Tensioner (Spring 2005)
-Oxygene Sensor (Spring 2005)
-Front Rotors, Calipers, & Pads (Spring 2005)
-Rear Pads (Spring 2005)
-New OEM specification clutch (Summer 2004)
-New painted bumper (Spring 2004) due to peeling paint
-New windshield (Summer 2003), no chips whatsoever
-New all-season tires mounted on 92-94 wheels (Summer 2004)
-New hatchback struts (Summer 2003)
-Rear differential lube done (Summer 2003)
-Replaced deck with 92-94 stock AM/FM/Cassette/CD player with 4 speakers
-New NGK platinum spark plugs and wires (Winter 2003)
-New Motormaster battery (Winter 2003)

SPECIFICATIONS:
-Factory installed 2.0L DOHC 16v turbocharged Mitsubishi 4G63 engine
-Stock 195hp, 190lbs-ft torque (much, much more than that now)
-Champagne body, black roof/spoiler, brown/tan interior
-205,xxx km
-Rare limited-option AWD (no air, no pw, no pdl, good for those looking to mod this even more b/c you will end up removing them!)
-Cruise control, power mirrors, glass sunroof, tilt power steering


CONSIDERATIONS:
-I will disclose everything I have noticed good and bad below:
-No rust, paint is amazing for a car this age, no major mechanical problems, there is however a small grind in 3rd gear, but easy to work around.
-this car NEEDS at least 91 octane gas, 94 is nicer
-Oil changed on regular basis
-Have babied the car since i've owned it (4-5 months)
-reason for selling is to perhaps build another ae86
-PM for any questions/comments


NEW PRICE, someone please take this from me, needs a new home. $5,000, NEG.

Bump.



Ive had lots of pm's, calls, and lots of interest in the car, even someone from Edmonton was supposed to come see it yesterday, but he never called. (I hate when people do that).

Great car for the rest of winter, even though its looking to be pretty mild. Also just put in a brand new heater.

Compressions test reads 145 - 140 - 140 - 150, LOTS of life left in this DSM.

dont think he even has an account, his friend told him about the car.

He asked if he could drive and i said sure, so he starts going down my dad's shop's alley, AND HE REDLINES it in first, then does about 6 grand in 2nd, before i can even say a word. then he comes around front of the shop and REDLINES it again right in front of all the stores......like what the hell, if you want to know how fast it is, just tell me to go fast.

everybody started comin out of their stores in the mall that the shops located, to see who the hell was pinnin' it down the alley.

If i get reported or something for that, ill be in touch w/ the guy.

thus, all test drives will be with ME driving the car.
