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.
