the talon already is

Soooo...you got an MR2, had it for a few days and traded it for an DSM? Although the DSM may have 300HP, I still woulda kept the MR-2 simply due to the fact that DSMs are everywhere and that a well-done MR-2 is more appreciated and respected. Well, around where I live anyway. Congrats with your new DSM and be sure to slap a Sheppard Tranny on it, or else you'll be going through transmissions about every 3000 miles.

i had the MR2 just over a month i think.. i traded for the DSM because it was turbo and had some work into it.. the tranny is pretty fresh from what i was told, but i'm still lookin into thing's.. im trying to source a cheap slightly used turbo timer for it because i have a habit of just hoppin out of the vehicle without lettin the turbo have a chance to cool.. i liked the MR2, but it ran out of breath too fast and it doesnt suit my needs very well.. the talon suits my needs alot better, it can seat my daughters, my fiance, and me and still have room for crap in the back, and then it can kick ricer *** when it need's too and i kind of like haveing a fully loaded power everything car for once.. i've actuly never had a car newer then almost 20 years old since i started driveing

With a family of our size, I can understand the benefits of a backseat. Too bad about the MR2. Anyway, I wish you best of luck and I hope that you have fun with the DSM. They're fun cars, but I would definitely put some money into a transmission if your pushing over 300HP. Too bad it's so freakin expensive. It's just one of those necessary evils, ya know? Well, I guess if you don't run in hard a lot then you should be okay. Just be careful when toasting the Honda boys.
