I've seen that 1G on one of the internet vid sites before and I'm not impressed. Not that it's not a cool project, but did you see the total cost of it? Over $30k and only in the low-mid 10's!

I would need to see that "VR4" in the daytime. 6g72TT just won't fit in an Eclipse without A LOT of cutting.

Yeah I thought the same thing $38k for 10 sec, but it was interesting seeing an 4g63 in the trunk lol.

I commented on the vid of the Eclipse 3.0TT. I have a larger engine bay with my Avenger and a 6g72TT cannot fit in mine without some serious firewall cutting. There's no way a 6g72TT will fit in an 2g Eclipse. Besides, you can't see diddley.

Edit: But upon watching the video again, at 1:45, when the cameraman walks around the drivers side of the car, I can (barely) see the 6g intake, timing belt cover, and front valve cover.

I want to believe it and I found myself thinking that I can see the plenum too. lol. He could have an aftermarket 4g63 intake and if you see it under low light conditions and at that angle it wouldn't look like a 4g63 anymore. I haven't seen this guy post this on any of my other DSM boards. I wish this vid was taken during the daytime.
I'll have to stand by the saying.."show me the money!". Lol.

This vid reminds me of UFO sighting vids, lmao.

These guys may be from Mexico and those guys are nuts with their DSMs out there. So, it could be real...I need tangible evidence because this would be a breakthrough with this platform and swaps.

Ok, I just watched the vid again and at 1:45 (as you mentioned Stealth) and I do see what looks like the 6g valve cover and plenum. I would still like daytime pics or vids to dispute any doubt.
