I forgot my info for an account i just made so i had to make this new one and post this again, plz dont kill me.
anywho im new to the whole tuner scene and i just got this new 01 eclipse GT, mostly stock. i know i want to throw an air intake on it to get more HP, but what other mods should i look at investing in to start out with under the hood????


i like dis pic cuz its shiny \/

 

The only major gain your going to get is with a turbo. That will be about 3.5k.

Welcome

 

There are shops out there that will help you go to roadraceengineering.com they have all kinds of **** for your ride.And dont forget about suspension so you can hook up..

 

Correct.

Welcome to MF.

 

Ahhhh i c, thanx. i checked out andysautosport.com and looked up my car and turbos for it but there are like 70 of em.know any recourcesi can use to findout which one will fit? Also ive read on other posts that the true power you get from a turbo comes from the supporting aftermarket mods you install with it. What are other mods besides the turbo kit should i look at getting.

p.s.

i justbought an Eibach 2" lowering spring kit woohoo

 

Your best bet as far as turbos for 3G is to talk to Tearstone. By far the most competent 3G forced induction person there is out there. (As far as Ive ever known anyway) You can usually get a hold of him on C3G or on Tearstone.com. Good choice on the springs tho, Ive got Tien S-techs in my 3G, how are the Eibachs?

BTW- Great avatar.

 

I was browsing through items on that tearstone site, lots of stuff to look at. Itll be a while before i can throw on the turbo, lack of $$$, lol. but thanks for the resource. As far as the Eibachs go im still waiting for them to come in the mail, just ordered them a few days ago, but ive heard lots of good things about them so im excited as all hell to intall em... even tho its going to make getting in and out of the driveway hell

 

welcome i like that color...what is it called?

 

hmmm, yes i must name my baby... something along the lines of... blue frost?

 

Cmon now, everyone knows ya gotta name your car with a female name... All cars are females... (most anyway) if they werent... theyd come stock with *****.
