Okay so Im really new to the whole dsm/tuner world and I just have a few questions.
I have a 99 O-Z edition Mits Eclipse GS. Non turbo, Automatic. Im really just tired of being revved on and looking real stupid when suped up tiburons and civics are beating my on the highway. So Im ready to invest. Here are my Questions....

What would be the quickest way to get a substantial hp gain?
If I buy a turbo, what should I look for?
What else do I need to buy to get the most out tof my turbo?
What kind of adjustments do I need to make to my ECu to control boost, run high HP without screwing up my transmission?
Exhaust?
and last but not least... Where can I find the best deals on parts?

Thanks for reading.... Please HELP.
 
Answer to all of your questions would be in here.

Just so you know, that link takes you to:

420A Turbo Conversion
Turbo kits, swaps, etc - specific to 2G N/T DSMs.
 
You will also learn a lot by reading the tech articles and using the search feature for specific questions. :thumb:
 
thanks guys... I should probably just stop bein lazy and do the resaerch myself LOL, but I was sort of hoping someone out tthere would just have all of the answers.
 
Honestly, your best route is to keep your car for a backup and save up for a factory turbo car.

But NA guys hate hearing that.

NA DSMs are good, dependable, economical, visually pleasing cars. Use them as that.
 
Get out of my forums... :mad:

:p

He didn't ask whether or not he should buy a 4G63t, he asked how to make a few more horsepower with his current car.

To the OP, you won't be spoon fed information here... to get anywhere you need to take initiative and research the basics for yourself. When you have unique questions that haven't been posed before, feel free to make another thread.
