Bought a DSM today. Now what mods?!

Update:
My exhaut cam siezed in the head and snapped the belt. Bent intake valves and all. My new head will be here wednesday. It's a fresh reman from a company. I was gonna get an upgraded head but I dont have the bling for that right now. I have a Multi-layer steel headgasket, greddy kevlar timing belt and ARP headstuds to install when I replace the head.

I installed a new clutch last week. It's a SPEC stage 3 good to 450lb/ft. My friend Chris has one in his 97GSX and it works great for him. He runs 20psi every day. Oh, I installed a Apexi SAFC last week too. :thumbleft:

Up to date mod list:
Magnicore wires
3" turbo back exhaust
ARP head studs
Mitsu Multi-layer Steel headgasket
Greddy Kevlar timing belt
Ported Exhuat manifold
Ported 02 housing
550cc injectors
Apexi SAFC
Spec Stage 3 clutch
Big 16G at 20PSi
Turbo XS Dual stage boost controler

I'm getting practice on a Tig welder lately too. Soon I'll be making my own hard charge pipes out of some 2.5" steel. I'm in the process of figuring out a good size for a front mount intercooler too so I can have that when I make the charge pipes. :afrocool:

I'm thinking I might take the DSM to the dyno day now since they have an AWD dyno. There's also a local DSM club track day on the 15'th so I'll have some times. :thumbleft:

Anyone wanna buy it? It's woring great now. Been driving it to work every day and it's really quick. I installed a ported o2 housing from a 2G too. I'm thinking I'm gonna sell it. I have 4 cars at the moment and could use the money. I have under $2000 in the car and bet I could sell it for around $3000. :thumbup:

Might be getting this car back this week. We'll see how it works out. I really miss boost. :thumbleft:

Nope, he's buying his Fiero back. Talon plus cash if the deal works out. Will be monday if it happens. He added a DSMtuner, 560cc evo8 injectors, o2 housing dump, walbro 190 pump and autometer a/f gauge. Will be nice to have it back.

didnt' he give you cash plus the fiero to get the talon?

Fast88Fiero · Post by **Fast88Fiero** » Sun Jan 29, 2006 6:10 pm

No, we traded even. :thumbleft:

you seemed to hate that talon when you had it though. seemed to give you nothing but grief. woudl be surprised you would want it back.

I guess it depends on how much cash he is going to give you.
