Turbocharged eclipse with all
yeah if i was about to get any eclipes it would have to be the gsx, and that would be if i HAD to but.....if he had upgraded his turbo you would be toast.,anddits hard to get a jump on any front wheel drivecar(i dont mean any but you know what i mean) nevermind a awd.i like my mustang.

how do you figure he had 9 grand into it lol. if you want to get technical your the ricer for putting on a body kit especially before mods. You ran an eclipse on a stock turbo with a $50 boost controller thats why his max boost was 16psi. </p>
</p>
I wouldn't call him a ricer just becaue he did the kit before mods, He just wanted his Stang to look good. HE doesn't have any outragous kit and 14" wing on it, etc. </p><edited><editID>Admin</editID><editDate>38028.6553935185</editDate></edited>

bahahha I didn't know four bangers had headerS. <IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0"></P>
i thought on the gst and gsx they refer to it as an exhaust manifold, unlike the header found on the rs and gs models. and was the $9000 spent on engine mods or was some ofit spent on other stuff like body modications, suspension and stuff not pertaining to the engine. because a turbo eclipse with $9000 worth of performance mods should easily have won. </P>

you don't put a header on a turbo Eclipse... you can't. The exhaust manifold is made to work with the turbo that you have, since the turbo is run off the exhaust gasses. I'm calling MAJOR bs on this.

good win if its all true, he coulda been BSing about all the stuff he has done, those turbos are fast, pieaces of crap but when they hit boost theyll get going. my frined had a 98 gst with downpipes and full exaust, intake, boost controller running 15 pounds, we raced from a stop and due to traction i had him by about half a car, from a roll he has a car on me before i can even get the pedal on the floor!.. i do have a 99 automatic with just exuast, but owell i spank the rice! <IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0"></P>
