Pimp my ride!
Just bought my sixth Eclipse (this one's a 98 Spyder, 2.4 nonturbo), and I've never really customized before. Two questions:
1. Is there a good, well organized website that specializes in mods for Mitsubishi or import sports cars?
2. What are some specific things I can do to increase speed/horsepower/torque/etc. (without turbo conversion) I've thought of a SRI or CAI, and of course putting in premium plugs and wires, but that's it so far. I know there is some mod that can get more HP in the wheels, and I'm sure there's all kinds of little tricks I don't know anything about that would give me what I'm looking for. Appreciate any suggestions.

The only thing that is worth doing is a cold air intake. Please dont put a lame *** bodykit or antyhing.. that would break my heart. For the price of a bodykit you can buy a 4G63T and tranny and swap it in... it drops right in.

Really...most body kits are ridiculous, but I do like this one (minus the spoiler, I'd rather have the stock)
Hard to tell what it'd look like on a Spyder though....
So there's nothing aside from a CAI that would be good?

ewwwey....looks like bloody poopy buttsex. I hate body kits on DSM's....unless you can find a good low profile one that fits the body well.

Damn. It's not THAT bad. lol
God, nothing? There's nothing I can do to this car? I want to spend something on it. Aside from the CAI or SRI and 20% tint, I'm stuck. I'm definitely doing some stuff with the interior, but I really want to do everything I can to add performance as well.

I would get some nice rims, lower it, maybe a carbon fiber hood/and or trunk, lip kit of some sort maybe and she would look clean as hell
