I have a file of like 50 slips from various cars and i was writing from memory...but i dont know im focusing on this car now and i was just looking for some advise from a different point of view...I have LOTS of Mitsu friends down here but turboing a non-turbo is something that ive only done..so the fact the N/t DSM are so close to the hondas im here...if your really worried about my times you can run my '93 Talon for slips and we'll see if i forget the times then 12.4 @112mph before nitrous..im at Moroso every Friday they are open for whoever wants to play

o well, good luck w/ your project!
must be no traction - that is what my neon ran when it was new before any mods. except 15.9 @ 87mph - that was with a 2.5 60ft. I will post the slips later. I think your car weighs more though, mine was 2350lbs. I have an R/T that has a close ratio tranny and a 3.94 end gear. You can pick those up for almost nothing but most people that are turbo swap for a 350 end gear.

There is an electronic overboost eliminator you can build for about $5.00 I have the parts I will send you if you send me $7.00 for parts and shipping.

I have turboed quite a few neons and eclipse's

And you engine should be 150hp stock.

Must be a fast taurus...I have respect for everyones cars...but i know how my talon runs..its not the fastest thing in the world but it does hold its own..as long as a cars on street tires ill run it...even if i lose it'll be a sick race...also the '95-99 nonturbo talons and eclipses have 140hp stock...they are heavier than the neon...usually a stock talon or eclipse those years would run a 16.7 all stock...but anyhow i got my new ignition in...works pretty good...time to boost the crap of it again..lol

a stock one will generally break rods and blow head gaskets...but i have a low compression motor from howell automotive that has been made for high boost setups...my turbo kit is going to be homemade...unfortunately it was cheaper to just buy a complete setup
