Default 00 Eclipse GT help....

I have recently finished off doing everything I want to do to the exterior and interior, and now am ready to start performance upgrades. What are some of my best choices for the most results. Money is somewhat of a issue, I just spend it as I get it. But cannot have to many 1000$ costs at one time. Any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks Jordan

well if you are only looking to spend $1000 and not saving it get exhaust, headers, intake, plugs, and wires. Now if you are willing to wait for a little bit get a turbokit many companys make um but i hear tearstone is the best.

my advice, just save that money and turbo the car. bolt-ons do much of nothing for this car.

that is your best bet, other wise you will never have alot of power youll be just matginal and lucky to see times as fast as mid 14s. Alot of GT 3Gs never even get there

Yeah, i would have no problem saving up the 4000 for the turbo. But by the time you had to also change all the other parts to keep from taring up your car.

you shouldn't have to replace any parts of the car. and you will need more than $4k for a turbo. look more toward $6k or more at a minimum.
