Default you know what I hope?

I hope they make 4th gen eclipse GSX.... if mitsubishi's mi-vech can take the eclipse to 260BHP on all motor I think they should finish what they started and make it AWD and strap a turbo to it....

I just think they are scared it will rob sales from the EVO [&:]

discuss...

i believe they stooped that line with the 3gs i think.. making turbo eclipses wasnt thier biggest money maker so i think thats why they stopped that

IDK I just think that after the variable valve timing upped the stock motor that much, they should see how it takes to a snail.... One thing is for sure.... it would be freaking deadly

because WRX have worse trannys than DSMs they blow up ALL THE TIME. and the STi has a weaker motor and worse handleing than the EVO plus who wants baby blue carpet and pink lettering all over there car

Haha, so true! emonz made the main reason why they wont do that a while ago.. the Evo is there flagship, so if they bring out the GSX turbo'ed on that motor, there wont be much of a reason to buy an EVo..

also, i believe i read in a post earlier, that the sti no longer comes with 300hp, its like 296 or something. and the evo runs high 12's and the sti runs low 13's. but thats all stuff i heard from previous posts, not my knowledge, so i dont take credit.
