I have an 01 I wouldn't mind selling. Getting married in a month and fiance cannot drive stick It has higher km at 223,000 but its all highway. Brand new clutch and dual mass flywheel which cost $1800. It has always had premium with synthetic oil. Let me know if your still looking. I'm in London. Cheers.

As a previous talon owner (Magnus motor/ trans 60-1 424whp) on my 2G i'll tell you right now the 1.8T isn't anything even close to the 4G63, not even close. It will not handle the power and reliability like what the talon can do. Nobody on a 1.8T is making 600whp on a stock block and head. So no you wont slap on a T3/T4 make 400whp with 22psi on a stock engine with a 1.8T, and if you do it won't last long. It's just not even close to the same league.

My 1.8T is fun and chipped gives it more power. The AWD system is great and handles nicely. Overall for a daily driver it's a much nicer car. Getting the same power out of it compared to a DSM will just never happen unfortunately... 1.8T's really struggle to run 12's and Talons run easy 12's 2000bux or less in mods lol... I did 12.1 on my stock 2G motor with a failing head gasket and 11.4 on my 1G built swap and the 60-1 on pump gas. Just before I sold I was going to get a GT40R for the car and run that with my AEM ecu.. Could have made 600whp or so ish... Ahh well, no big deal.

Regards,

Oh yeah i totally understand, Thats why if i were to do the whole race thing id get a 1g talon and give er. With the a4 id just chip it, intake, IC, sound system, little things like that. 250 hp to 300 im good. This a4 is my daily driver so i dont want anything crazy
