I'm at the drag strip and this So called Twin Turbo Talon (TTT) LOL pulls up and hes like wanna race just after i lost to a Nissan 240 (nice engine!). So i count it down...3....2....1.. GO! BAM i took him off the line but instantly he pulls ahead and i mean i got auto.. To make the story Short i JUST Got beat by like a car lenght maybe.. And his car Was suppose To be crazy. I have a short ram and exhaust! LOL i was like lets see what ya got and he drives away.. Is there Twin Turbo Talons out there? or is this guy Bs'ing me... i was surprised i kept up... heh... Oh ya and after that like 10 minutes later he comes back races the 240 and gets smoked.. lol we laughed at the guy cause he was acting big.. and probably didn't know how to drive.. (i doubt that though, smoke everywhere...)

Wow, that's way too slow for a single or dual turbo. Coule you tell if he even had a turbo at all?

what model was it? tsi or esi talon, cuz the tsi is the turbo model and the esi is the crappy non-turbo..

No such thing as a twin-turbo Talon. They're all single turbo 4G63 motors...if you see him again, ask him to pop the hood. :)

there's no point in doing a TT inline 4....it only helps when u have two banks of cylinders like on v6's and v8's...

What about the Audi TT?!?:D hehe........I love explaining to people that it doesn't stand for twin turbo.
I've thought about doing a twin turbo 4 cylinder if money wasn't an object.....much quicker spool up time but then again you can tune a turbo on a 4 cylinder to spool up pretty quick, so it's kinda pointless.
I saw a 4000 hp "integra" funny car that had twin turbo......that thing looked......uh.......funny!:D

calm it down a little man. i was just saying that the engine in a non-turbo eclipse/talon are not as powerful as a turbo eclipse/talon.
BTW what mods do you have on your eclipse?
