okay heres the deal I just got a new job and im lookin for a decent car, i was taking a walk and I cut across this dealership right? well i found this Ealge Talon and I was like dude. so i talk to the guy and he is like "yeah ill give it to you for 500$ so im like heck yeah! Ido a little bit of homework on the car and come to find out their are 4 diff models for the first gen talons DL,ES,TSI,and TSI AWD. well i look ath the engine specs a few days later and sure enough its a 4G63 now i was confused, the 4g63 was only a 2.0 liter bit it said it was a 1.8. the 1.8 verson was only the DL cranking a a whoping 92 (Joke) HP. should i say screw that! save my cash or go ahead and buy the S.O.B for 500?

it is always possible the engine could have been switched.
The big question is does it have a turbo on it?
I'm pretty sure the 1st gens did come with a non turbo 4g63 unlike the 2'gs with the 420a and I do remember there being a 1.8 SOHC too. but for 500 bucks I want to say you can't go wrong!

well now your talking major mods. It would be very expensive to do these things and if thats what your looking for I would say you should definately start with turbo awd platform. It will be much cheaper in the long run for anything like that.

your right, problem is i have a very limited range to choose from... the other two things that are availble is Vision TSi and Ford Probe so mostlikely the vision its 3.5 i think...
