No, I'd need to get the Tsi repainted. But the Tsi has front end damage, and from what I have heard, the frame is cracked. Here's pics of my car (N/T): http://www.angelfire.com/home/mikeweb/talon.html

It's definitely not an easy swap in the 2Gs. The engine in a 2G NT is not simply a non-turbo version of the Turbo cars in the 2Gs. The motor mounts will be in a different place, many of the hard fluid lines will be in differenct places, coolant overflow, battery, etc. You'll need to find a 2G FWD tranny (which, since they weren't sold in Canada, won't be as easy). Then you'll have to redo all the tranny linkages, not to mention all the wiring, ECU, etc. You'd be much better off putting the money towards a turbo kit or some nitrous.

Brian, is the center air outlet the same size as the 1G? The oval dual air outlet above the heating knobs. I just cracked mine and I was wondering if the outlets are the same, I could buy the piece off of ya.
