Default Anyone know anything about Eagle Talons?

Hey, I know this is a Honda board, but I am a honda guy helping my friend with his eagle talon.

It has the 420A 2L DOHC motor, and he is looking for boost. WHat I want to know is, can he use any parts from the TSi, or mitsubishi turboed cars? Like specifically, manifold.

We are looking for cheap here, and i know that the boosted Talons and Mitsus are 4G63's but would the manifolds be compatible?

ANy insight or links on the subject would be great! thanks!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the talons and eclipses were sister cars, and were mechanically identical?

Tell your friend to sell his DSM if he wants a car that will work. Rochester's car scene is 50% DSM, almost all of them run at least 12's, and very few of them will be working for more than half of the year.
