Picture of her clean engine on the left. On the right is a picture of the Magnacore wires to NGK plugs. Can anybody guess what's in the black plastic loom and what it is used for?

Picture of her upgraded ported and polished 14b turbo. Being an automatic, she came from the Illinios factory with a stock 13b turbo. The picture on the right shows her upgraded 90 amp alternator from the weak stock 75 amp. There is 0-guage thru out the stereo install along a 15 Farad capacitor but the demands of the three super hi-current USAmps still taxes the Talon's electrical system. The USAmps are "cheater amps" as the VLX-25 amplifier is rated at 12.5 watts rms per channel at 4 ohm. In reality, the VLX amp is bridged putting 800watts into a single .5 ohm load. Yeah...with the stereo cranked up, the three amplifiers draws approximetly 200 amps!

My new, made by Goodyear in America, tires. These are summer only tires on 17" OZ Racing rims (from Italy). On my factory rims (from my 1991 red Eagle Talon TsiAWD) I have winter only tires. I've had those winter only tires for many years but I still haven't taken "Screamin' Eagle" out in the winter yet. She stays cuddled up in my warm garage next to the Corvette.

Hey I have a question for a fellow Talon owner, I have a 94 and right under the RPM gauge there is a amber light with a picture I have never seen before, It comes on when I first start it and stays on till the car warms up then goes off, any idea what this light is for ? It kinda looks like a air filter ? ? I'm guessing and I did change the air filter with a new one still stays on.

Hey man nice talon. I as well have a 1992 tsi and am trying to put together a sound system in it. I am having a bit of trouble getting the power wire from the battery through the firewall. I have tried to put it through where the main harness goes but it is too tight and im not sure where or if i should drill a hole. Any sugestions would be very appreciated. Thanks, Tom.
