Hey Ken.......... Joe here..... If you ever get it running (and or your a smart DSM owner and have ANOTHER car) AND YOUR driving by in the springs and see me throwing wrenches at my 97 Black TSI AWD, stop and help yourself.

Welcome to the board. I'm also in the Springs, hit me up if you get frustrated. I might help you throw stuff at your car, if you help me wire mine with dynamite.

Anyhoo....mine is getting closer to running again, one step at a time, engine is being built & tranny is at SHEPS Trans. Just got a million more things to do to it.

What do you have done to yours? Any plans for it?

finally found problem bad valve guides so the head is in the shop getting redone. I just got the car early last month and it was bone stock. I had a good 14b leftover from my last Talon so it replaced the 13, bumped up injectors to 450 from the auto trans 390s. Working on the mounts for my fmic, 2g port matched exhaust manny and a 2g throttle body elbow.Looking for a maft and hoping to get it before the head comes back but no luck yet. Thats it so faar but time will tell its future I have not decided which way to go yet.Let me know how you like Sheps trans, Mine will be paying Jack a visit as soon as I get rid of all the other little quirks.
