Engine Modification... HELP!
a 16g is a mitsubishi manufactured turbo. It's a decent size turbo and normal variations flow 505 cfm. It can support up to 375 crank hp, so it's more than enough for most. 99% of all people who want to go fast but also want to drive their cars daily need *only* a turbo this size. It's an excellent street turbo with good spool characteristics. Toaster_power, if you're really a newbie to all this stuff, it's best not to go head-first into turbocharging.
Maybe I missed it or something, but I'm too lazy to backtrack in this conversation. What model Eclipse are we talking about anyways? Is it a non-turbo or turbo model? Just curious so I know what is the best route to making it fast.<IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0"></P>
You're going to need a whole front clip from a turbo eclipse. You know this right? The engine bay layout for the non-turbo eclipse is total opposite from the turbo model. You're also going to have to change out the fuel lines and fuel pump because they are different.
OH!!...My bad...You're talking about a 1st Gen.....I thought u were talking about the wretched 420A motor used in the 2nd Gens.....yea you will need a new motor but most everything else should bolt up pretty well with a 1st Gen...<IMG src=smileys/smiley3.gif border="0">
