The bane of the Talon/Eclipse is the factory transmission, seemingly made out of glass. Jon@TRE built us a transmission capable of standing up to 5500 RPM stutterbox launches - if you've got a modified DSM, you'll eventually need his work in your car too.

You can only muck with the stock EFI computer for so long before you realize you need something with a little more control over the engine, so we're using a GEMS Sequential 4 fuel/ignition system. It uses the stock wiring harness, uses most of the stock sensors, but is completely programmable (in real time!) and has all kinds of nifty extra features. All kinds of FIA World Rally cars use this computer - so you know it works!

Volk Racing Wheels are the strongest and lightest wheels you can buy without having to break the bank, and Isotope Racing Wheels is the best place to get Volks. Paul Brown at Isotope is an autocrosser himself, so you can trust that you're getting a good wheel at a fair price. By switching to Volk TE-37s, we saved over 40lbs of rotating mass!

These are, bar none, the best tires in autocross today. Run Hoosiers, or lose, it really is that simple. We get ours (and our Quaife bits too) from Hoosier Tom at Mid-Atlantic Motorsport.

Autocross cars live and die by their suspensions, and an inferior spring just won't pass muster. We use Hypercoil suspension springs exclusively - they don't sag, and their rates are held to the closest tolerences we've found.

Race cars that do a lot of transitions need excellent shocks to keep a grip on the track. We use Bilsteins to keep us winning.

All the graphics on the car are thanks to the overworked folks at Signs and More. The car looks beautiful, it's immediately recognisable, and Jim and the gang think nothing of changing their schedules to meet ours. Need graphics for a car? Call them.

Buschur Racing is one of the great pioneers of building DSM speed. Back with us as an associate sponsor, David and Tym at Buschur build us all sorts of DSM go-fast parts.

We recently switched to Clutchmasters' Stage IV clutch and aluminum flywheel. The fine folks at Clutchmasters make an incredible clutch, and we're proud to have them on board with us.
