No substance to the video what so ever. For one thing its not a 94 as claimed. Its a 2G 95+ model. It clearly had no bolt on's such as exhaust, fmic etc.... Another thing the stock 2g BOV can't hold anything higher than stock boost levels. Hence 19 psi is simply not possible. Another thing the roof matched the rest of the car. Unlike the eclipse all talon's came with black roofs. Thus it had been painted along with the black door handles, which were only present on the non-turbo model's. BTW where was the motor blowing part? Need i say more? All in all, its total horse sh!t.

yea not great but yes

low_civic · 30 Aug 2006, 06:44 am

never missed a shift when racing...(and i used to drive manual cars)

97talon · 30 Aug 2006, 06:46 am

The 2nd to 3rd shift is the one most commonly missed since it's the longest throw. A lot of people during racing are doing extremely quick shifts at WOT. Most of the time they are going all the way down on the clutch either. So if the clutch is let out a little quicker than you shift you miss the gear.

Mellon · 30 Aug 2006, 07:23 am

I never had much problem hitting shifts but when my clutch pedal was a little out of adjustment I had to go all the way to the floor before it would even think about disengaging the clutch so you'd hit a snag when shifting and miss it. Once I realized what was going on I tweaked the pedal height for what worked best for my style.
