I had a eagle talon Turbo and that ----------er was broken down more than it ever ran! been through 3 different heads from busted valves, dropped valves, jumped timing, a few alternators, water pumps, the diff locked up on me , I had that rebuilt to sell it.... then as i was out for a test drive to get rid of it, the ------- motor overheated because the damn block cracked!! NEVER again will i own anything DSM! EVER, i'd sooner trade it for a geo metro before I purchased another. I ended up parting it out on ebay to recouple some money and paid a tow truck to pick up the shell. surprisingly I got decent dough for all the interior, turbo, ecm, and the freshly rebuilt diff so in the end of about 3 years i had something to show for it other than a eyesore in my front yard.

although i do know that when running those blocks are extremely tough is stock form, i've heard the same thing that the blocks in stock form are good until around 400hp. keywords "When running" theirs a guy down the block from me who has 2 of them, one is ALWAYS up on jackstands! why do people still own these thing is beyond me. having one swapped into a CRX is retarded if you ask me. waste of a good chassis.

That's what my buddy thought. He bought all this baller turbo ---- for his 2g and was like; I'm telling you man 400HP. I was like I'm telling you, you're going to break something.

Sure as ---- a week after it's done, crank walked the ------- thing.

I assume that the parts were "free". Nobody does this for no reason or they are stupid
