more boost

[MX3-Freak]

Hell of a lot more boost....and why do you ask here rather then an eclipse forum???

[mitmaks]

more boost, better turbo, N2O is your eclipse AWD?

[Nallboy]

Yeah, I think it's the same guy. This dude just sold his 3 for an AWD GSX. Bad car, but ugly car.

A hell of a lot...took my friend's dad's new R32 for a spin last weekend. The pull on that car is insane, beautiful finish as well. You can read my review here:

wellguys hate to say this but more boost and complete exhaust will make it beat a r32. cuz my friends runs very high 13's stock. and hes only got 40 more hp fromt he factory then i do.so new turbomanifold,downpipe,complete 3 inch exhaust and turning the psi up will handle a R32. escpeciall if i have nothin but my drivers seat, dash and carpet and door panels.

i got a better idea get ze, headers, exhaust, intake, and stand alone ecu. that should put it much closer. Stand alone systems get rid of your vaf setup:D lots more power to be tuned into ur car.

oh wait you said eclipse.... stronger drive train and more power

a 50 shot of nitrous?

Well guys i went and raced my friend in his r32. he beat me the first time and i came home removed my stock cat and ran 2.5 inch out the back and put a k&n air filter and beat his 1/4 mile time.

When he beat me when i was completely stock he ran a 14.4. I went to the track last saturday night after my exhaust work and k&n filter and ran a 14.3 at 99.08 mph on bad plugs and in need of an oil change. So im gonna give my eclipse a tune up and get a boost controller and see how bad i can beat the breaks off that r32. later guys.

i was watchin sum (street.. but SHHHH)races on friday... and i saw a eclips beat a 500+ HP charger, and a 900CC croch rocket... it was fast... had the stock turbo, but about 20,000$ into just the engien... still had the full interior... just a lot of work i guess lol

Why in the world would you race a turbo charged car, or any car for that matter, that is badly in need of an oil change? Crankwalk anyone???

[BucktownMx3]

needed a oil change as in it hasnt had the oil changed since i baught ita month ago. and everycar i own will need a oil change till i get sum royal purple in it.


and i didnt see a single mx3 at the track at all. i was the only 90-94 elicpse there soo that was cool to. should have a full kit and altezzas on the elcipe by the end of this weekend also. and boost controller by next weekend. later guys. i'll keep u updated.
