Re: david-b's 95 Eagle Talon ESi-T Motor Build
Ok so now that I'm back settled in from vacation, it's time to get this project going again. I'm doing research on clutches right now. I think that's the last big expense for this project. I also picked up a new 12' wiring harness for MS so I don't have to run all my own wires and shit. It's all loomed up and wires are labeled. Will make it easy to get done. Should start running that this week as long as the rain is all good.
Still going to tear the block apart and make sure rings are in the right place and relube everything. Just for my own piece of mind.
My current IC piping where i welded the BOV pipe on (steel on aluminum) is starting to leak. So I got a new flange and going to make a little section and just coupler it in to the IC setup.
-Fuel injectors are going to be some 1000s. Going to sell the 440s I have first.
-Boost controller is ordered.
-Looking at large FMIC but may just max out the litle one first.
-Downpipe will be built on the spot. Was going to get a GST DP and run a little setion from the turbo to it, but I can weld my own up no problem.
-Bought sheet metal to reconstruct the passenger-side strut tower. Rust has gotten pretty bad so going to cut out the bad spots and redo it.
-Need new fuel rail (don't want to cut up current one)
So time got pushed off to mid June now for completion.
