Hi, I have a Eagle Talon TSI AWD 1990 175000km bought new. the motor runs flooded & the turbo is always on but sometimes it falls back to running normal, like new, the gas pump pressure was checked, the exaust was disconnected to check if the catalitic converter was plugged, the gas filter, most of the sensors, the coil & wires were replaced, air filter too & the filter unit was checked and is ok. Thank you in advance for the advise, it is a Canadian one, Andre

i have fitted a new thermostat heat working fine. but temperature gauge not working

I would try making sure spark plug wires are put on in the correct firing order. This is a common mistake in tune ups. Most intake manifolds have the firinging order cast in. Plug gaps correct? I cant come too far away.

no the configuration is much different to the bolt pattern and they are also balance differently as well. You can not mis match these or improvise there fit what so ever or internal engine damage will occur

Yes, the turbos are interchangeable that way - you'll have no trouble with it.

check buscher racing.com or call them they know it all when it comes to talons and dsm's

ecu is very unlikely id check to see if your getting spark

Too lean on boost. Not enough fuel.

First things first. Do not bother trying to use the stock boost gauge in that car, it runs off of the ECU and it estimates with small calculations what the PSI may be, the stock boost gauge is ushally 2-3 psi off.

What i recommend is getting yourself an aftermarket boost gauge you can get em used locally on craigslist or a cheapy one from a reputabile ebay power seller. or pick one up for 40-60$ from autozone.

After you do that mount it in a good location, they are very very simply to install, if yours does not come with an instruction paper, you can search boost guage install on dsmtuners.com or yahoo or google.


BUT BY ALL MEANS DO NOT TRY TO FIX THE STOCK GUAGE, YOU WILL NEVER KNOW THE ACTUAL PSI READING.

Try eBay. DSMhp.com, DSMTuners.com, etc. Most of the forums have buy/sell sections that will fit your needs. You can google DSM forums (DSM is Diamond Star Motors, which relates to where the Talon/Eclips/Laser were produced in Ohio) and find many that can help you and perhaps one close to your location.
