Hey guys, my name is Tom but most people that know me as "turbotom" in my area. I owned and repaired a lot of DSMs/Mitsus and I had a 89 Dodge Spirit ES 2.5 turbo automatic at one point of my life, The spirit was a kick --- daily driver and added parts from a DSM to the spirit which she was spanking honda guys all day. They hated me in the spirit because they got beat by a grandma's car,lol. Been working on DSMs for 12 years now and my favorite DSMs is the Chrysler/Eagle of course, Talon/Laser FTW!! Not only the spirit I put a 4g63t in a 93 Hyundai Excel which they hated me even more,lol. I joined this forum because a member on here said there are great bunch of guys here and seeing that I'm some what a chrysler guy, I love mopar cars.
Here is a on going long build:
I have owned this car for a while now and in 2002 the car sat because of crank walk. Well she been siting ever since then, until currently,lol. It's a 95 Eagle Talon AWD 5 speed with 57k original miles and this year she is getting everything done to her. I'm just tired of the car sitting in the back yard and I want her running this year again. Reason she sat so long was 1) at the time I was restoring flipping DSMs 2) juggling a wife and kids and 3) in and out of jobs trying to better myself.
Here is what she looked like now:

Well since now I don't have a wife anymore nagging at my ear and all I have to do is worry about my kids, it's time to bring the car back to life. So I'm just building a street car, not interested on making her a drag queen because the way I look at it is this. I would LOVE to own a EVO 9 MR but I don't have the funds right now, so the next best thing is my Talon which in 2001 I paid $10k for her with 38k on the odometer. Needless to say, she will be running again and I have been DSMLess for about a good 4 years now. It's driving me nuts not to have a DSM again, so I have to have something this year for sure.
