All this powering either an HX35 or 40. I never quite got to decide which I wanted to do. There are a bunch of other random little parts I planned on/needed to get.

That was the plan until about 3 weeks ago. Then my Eclipse's headgasket went..
Picture of the Eclipse:


So now I have been buying parts to get that running again... Not stock though :P

What it comes down to now, if do I stick it out and keep both? Or sell the Talon? IDK. I think I'm keeping both. The Talon still needs to be completely redone suspension wise. I figured why not redo the engine. Then the 2.3 will come into play.

I believe it is. The boost gauge I have in the car now seems to be off.. I had a place I was going to ship a valvecover to, to have it powdercoated, but he, and the forum he was offiliated with started some shit which ended up getting me banned because they simply didn't like me. So I no longer have anything to do with them.

I was either going to do the same color as the car, or starlight purple I believe they call it. IDK yet. I'm not putting much more money into the thing right now though.
