1gen talon turbo for ze?

Post by babyblueMX3 »

hi guys, I am planning my turbo set-up for my klze and i was wondering if a 1gen talon would be a good turbo with the ze engine...Is anybody running this turbo? What are the ups and downs? I was hopping getting 300 horsies at the crank...My freind is selling one for pretty cheap..so i could buy this one now or wait and get the t3t4 like i wanted to...just need some feedback on the 1gen talon turbo..turbo has about 60 000 km on it and is running fine

probably worth buying......but I hear the Talon turbos aren't that good.
there's a yellow one I used to see around here that had a Talon turbo in it......it certainly worked but wasn't very efficient.

I most definitely agree with waiting for the T3/T4. The DSM turbos are way too small to yield anything around 300hp, even if its only to the crank and not the wheels. I know first hand that a T3 will definitely be more worth the wait and you can get some pretty cheap anyways.
