Re: Blackcrow64's Talon TSi AWD Project Progress Thread...
Ordered a new aftermarket oil pan and intake manifold... Also am winning an auction for a new set of wheels and tires... Hopefully I win it. I need to ditch these stockers...

Re: Blackcrow64's Talon TSi AWD Project Progress Thread...
The old pan had a crack and several dents in it. My buddy welded it for me and we thought it would be ok. It is still leaking pretty good though so I was done messing around. Bought a nice new one that also holds more oil in the sump when I'm running it hard. 6.25 quarts of oil in this thing.
For the intake I am trying out one that this guy has been making and selling out of his garage for DSM's. However, he has done comparisons to other intakes and his design gives about the same results as competitors and a huge gain over stock intakes. I was still sporting the stock intake, but now I'll be flowing better... Wheels... I won the auction. As soon as the come I'll post pictures.

Re: Blackcrow64's Talon TSi AWD Project Progress Thread...
Thanks guys... Figured I'd give you guys some updates here on the few little things I've been working on...
So over the weekend I had cut the spare tire hump out of the car to gain space for redoing the exhaust and also to have a more functional hatch for some new goodies coming soon... Got a piece of sheet metal cut to about the size needed and had an X pressed into it to stiffen it up so it wouldn't need any extra bracing. (My buddy's idea) It got welded in and then I seam sealed the whole thing on the inside and outside. Of course during all this I found that the pieces on each side where the hatch drain tubes go through had rusted clear through and need to be cut out and replaced as well. :ohdamn: If I had known that, I would have gotten two smaller pieces to repair it as well. Oh well, that'll be a project maybe next weekend or the weekend after that... Next I need to get some carpet with padding for the hatch and put my trim pieces back in and then I can remount my battery box and it should be in great shape! The exhaust was cut off at the rear axles and a v-band was welded on and then the new exhaust was tacked in place. It definitely hides the muffler and piping much better and gives it a more stock appearance without sacrificing flow. Exhaust was then welded up and is awaiting some high temp paint and it'll be ready to get thrown back on the car. And of course the nut on the v-band got something jacked up in the threads and destroyed the clamp. Waiting on a new clamp to come in for it as well before it can be remounted... Here are a few pictures to go along with it all.        For the record... It's much cheaper to build your own exhaust than to buy a pre-built kit... You can tailor it to fit your car perfectly and change it to however you'd like... More updates coming! I will also go back in time and fix my broken images throughout this whole thread...
