This is my 97 TSi AWD.....this car is identical to the 98 that my dad used to own. Currently its torn apart undergoing some mods.....the motor was just barely dropped off to a local machine shop.

 

Going to run an FP3065 in the future but I want to get it running ASAP so 14B on 9:1 CR and 272s here we come! :D It just might spool at idle....lol

Ya they are by far my favorite of the DSM body styles. They are the rarest too. There were less than 1500 Talons made in 97 and 98. Thats just Talons in general. The Turbo All Wheel Drive models were even more rare...
