A friend of mine has a 98 Eclipse GS with a (supposed, I haven't really seen it) 98 GST Turbo in it. As far as I know, he doesn't have any major mods other than the usual fart cannon and oversized Mitusbishi window stickers. And, I wouldn't really worry if it weren't for the fact that he said he's got the turbo motor. Those make about what, 210hp? My only consolation is that he doesn't have the AWD conversion kit on his GS. He's also got maybe 500 pounds of stereo equipment in his hatch. Two 12in subs in a giant box with two huge 500 watt amplifiers hooked up to them, plus a big in-dash DVD player with other hardware.
Now, he says he runs 10's...i KNOW that ain't true.
but, I'm still intrigued.
I've got 2003 3.8 with Bosch +4 platinum tipped spark plugs, K&N Drop-in filter, Quaker State advanced synthetic with a K&N hi-performance oil filter, and I use 91octane gasoline. As of now, those are my only mods
I don't THINK he has the turbo motor. I've never heard that turbo whine coming from his car (but then again, his fart blaster is so loud, I may have missed it)
Do I even stand a chance against this guy if he's got what he says he's got?
-thanks!
