Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

Nice list. Only comments I have are why did you need a new Crank? Also in my opinion you probably could have gotten away with stock main hardware and saved some money by not getting the ARP's. But to each their own, good luck man! The more fast purple 1g's around, the better :)

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

I havent SEEN any around? lol

Sounds like quite a list you got there, good luck

That turbo looks like it has blown seals. Exhaust wheel is wet...but if you need a t3 turbo manifold, I have one. Ramhorn style made by Punishment Racing.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

i needed it cause i think mine is thrashed cause its knocking map sold me one for $ 280 +( its going to need a polish )
the arp's i thought would make my engine stronger and safer.yeah i could have saved some money on a few things but i have the worst luck when it comes to engines and i just dont want to cheap out on some parts and be broken down some where.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

I hear ya. I'm still on stock main hardware so that's why I think you'd be ok too. But if it's worth it to you to get em, then more power to ya! Better safe then sorry isn't a bad mindset.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

$280 for a 6 bolt 2.0 crank that needs a polish?? Are they getting hard to find or something? I got one from them about 2 and a half years ago for $75.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

Yea damn...that's a hefty pricetag for a stock crank.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

i would have sold you a stock crank for $50

here is my kit and parts i have got so far

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

Dont you need to line hone when you use arp main studs?

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

^Thats what I have heard.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

Maybe, maybe not, depends on your exact block. ARP mains aren't needed for most builds, but they are probably cheaper than getting a new stock set of main bolts for the non-reusable ones on the 7-bolts and Evos. I would do some ARP L19 or A1 H11 headstuds before even doing rods/pistons. The heads usually start lifting before you even reach the limits of the stock rods/pistons in a 6-bolt motor. And normal ARP head studs are next to worthless over the stock bolts in DSMs/Evos.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

Thats true, my last set of arp's stretched really bad and caused my cometic HG to split on cylinder number 1. I'm planning on getting the L19's this summer.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

i have to upgrade my head studs ? i just got these. haven't even seen 300 mi or even 20 psi of boost .

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

If you plan on running the boost neccessary to make 500hp on DB's dyno, L19's would probably be a worthwhile investment.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

and i thought i was done spending money

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

There is a huge thread on dsmtalk talking about how shitty the standard ARP headstuds are. Stock 6bolt head "bolts" are actually stronger than the standard ARP's.

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

:angryfire: dammit:riped: anyone want to sell me some L19s

Re: 1991 talon 500 hp project
 

now that you know to talk to craig at oreilly's and use are mitsustyle discount you could have saved a ton of cash on all the parts you just bought. with are discount there it is cheaper than any local shop
