80645, FS: 97 Black Turbo Eagle Talon w/ 75k Engine, 16g turbo, front mount.
Posted by gotboost2394, Sep-24-05 09:02 AM
For sale is my 1997 Eagle Talon. The car is turbocharged. It has 75,000 miles on the engine, with a recent rebuilt head, headgasket, timing belt and water pump replacement service. 148,000 highway miles are on the body. It runs very strong, it has alot of new parts installed. The oil was changed every 2500 and the car was never "beat on" or abused. I always poured the highest octane gas i could get into the tank. The engine was replaced this year, which was the appropriate thing to do with the addition of all the modifications. The car is a turbo conversion car, and it was done right. No cheap hacks or shortcuts, everything was done properly and neatly.

Just after the car had the 16g turbo and fuel system put on it was dyno'd at 238 WHP on a Mustang Dyno, which generates lower numbers than the more common Dynojet. There is approximately $10,000 in upgrades, replacement parts, and services put into this car, with records for the majority of it. The only reason im selling the car is because im in a tight financial situation. The only thing the car will need upon purchase is 1-2 hours of dyno tuning, because since the time the last tune was done, the engine has been replaced and other mods have been added. It will more than likely make more power than it previously did, the car is still in the break in period.

The body on the car is very nice, the car is accident free apart from a small dent in the back that is being payed for by the party that caused it, the car will be fixed for no charge. There is only a few tiny scratches here and there the paint is phenominal for an 8 year old car. There are no other dents or large scratches visible anywhere on the cars body. The car looks great and it will be sure to turn heads.

The car does require dyno tuning, and the new motor is still in the break in period, the only reason this is up is that i am broke right now and have to sell my baby.

Price: $6750 OBO, need to sell.
I am located in Arlington Heights, IL (northwest suburbs)

Please post any questions here.

Pics will be up shortly.

The Tein S-tech Springs are actually not included, sorry. They where never installed and I ended up selling them, and had that list put together before hand.

It is raining today so i will take some nice pictures tommorow.

What do you guys suggest as far as selling it...

Ebay Motors?
Cars.com?
Autotrader.com?

DSMtrader is down, that stinks. I need to get rid of it.
