Turbo or not

How do you know if the 91 talon is a turbo will it have a hump in the hood or is that just normal.

The bump in the hood is on all talons and eclipses... If its a turbo Talon then it will be a TSi or TSi AWD...

Re: Turbo or not

Please use proper terminology it's called a power bulge, and btw my power bulge is bigger than yours.

Re: Turbo or not

When an episode of Walker Texas Ranger was aired in France, the French surrendered to Chuck Norris just to be on the safe side.

Re: Turbo or not

Where the exhaust manifold goes down, it will be right under it... You can't miss if if you know what a turbo at least looks like... Another way to tell is check in the guages and see if there is a factory boost guage.

Re: Turbo or not

chuck norris= god
Turbo can be sorta hard to spot if you don't know what you are looking for. Especially if it is all old ang rusty. T0 see if your car is turbo or not, look on your dash. In the same circle as your tachometer (rpms) there should be a smaller gauge that says "BOOST"
Also, not sure how high the NT speedo goes up to, but I am guessing it is less than the Turbo speedo. The 1g turbo speedo should read up to 140.

Hope that helps!
