420A Bolt-on TechIntake, exhaust, ignition, fuel system, cooling, etc - specific to 2G N/T DSMs. New Members must limit their 420A tech posts to this forum.
This thread is to share videos of your 420A after installing a new mod/on the dyno/at the track. Informative videos of you working on the car, or otherwise showing it off are also okay.
In accordance with DSMTuners.com site rules, there will be absolutely no videos of street racing. Let this post serve as a warning; violators risk infractions, suspension, and even banishment.
For those of you who didn't catch that:
NO STREET RACING
Try to upload your videos on YouTube, Google Video, or some other similar service. Don't forget to put tags on them like "dsmtuners" and "420a." Then, post the links to your videos here.
Hopefully this can serve as a helpful repository of 420A videos for new members to learn from.

I'm actually contemplating making a video of me doing a couple pulls in the car.
Anyways, this isn't much but it's something. My buddies wired my horn up to my brakes all while I was installing the turbo kit. I was doing some test runs to make sure I was building boost and my vacuum lines were all hooked up correctly. Little did I know...

In the above video, my friend John and I wrapped up the head install a day or so prior and had made a few top end runs out in the desert, but didn't have a camera with us, so we shot this getting onto the highway near his house one night. Fully-built with an AFX/R ECU running the show. Hard to see, but I was shifting around 7500rpm. The ramp was nice and long, so I don't get to the merge point until just after I engage the turn signal. We then coasted to the next exit and went back to the fort, as there was Jagermeister chilling.
In the above video, I have a Pacesetter 4-2-1, 33" Cherry Bomb glasspack (no cat), stock piping all the way back to a stock GST rear section. For the record, should anyone be wondering about the sound. This is what she sounds like today, although the stock ECU is dumb as paint and really dulls the performance.
The old girl still has some tricks left up her sleeve, though.
I NEVER SAW THIS! Not 420A Related, but DSM Related! WOOT WOOT! I wish I saw this commercial but this was before I even had my first DSM. Original Eclipse Commercial 1999
Hey I think that Original 1999 eclipse video was actually in 97. Thats how I have it listed on anothe site anyways.
However I could see how they could go from that awesome commercial in 99 with the last of the 2g's, onto the 3g's with the same type of commerical scheme
And not to get too far off topic but.... This is just too cool
Keep the 420a videos coming, less streetracing please.

Sorry Randy and Paul... Stupid me didn't catch that... Its like the only 420A Video I have... I think lately I've been missing a few things... maybe all the drama in my life is making me dazed and confused! lmao!
BTW Rand.. thats exactly what I've been looking for! Mitsubishi Commercials! That 1st gen one is awsome! So is the 95.. I used to have a 95 GSX... YUM YUM!
Shadow- You should update your profile. I am curious as to what you are using for fuel set-up.
Is that your car running 12's? I'm having trouble believing it is because your gallery shows a red car. The video posted was black. Then the one at 16psi is red again. Don't know if that's still you or not. They are some nice runs.

Sorry, I got to update my profile. I've just been trying to keep you guys update while doing the things I got to do. And yes, it's the same car. I'll get more vids tonight and tomorrow. BTW, my set-up is completely new (finished early this week).
edit: Ok, I updated my profile, but I think I forgot some things. Also, if you look closely at the vid, you can see the hood of my car, which is red. Look by where that sticker is...

The black car is someone else's (that is running 12's). The first video of those 4 was AWDDYNAMITE's car. Shadow's car is the one at 16 psi.
Ran the Daily at our local dragday. Poor thing had 164k on her with motor mounts that actually let me feel the engine returning to position after the box shot . I had to granny shift cause she just couldn't take the speed shift. This set-up was 10.5 comp, w/crower2's and MSnS (NA of course). The 14.8 run was on the MP 60mm TB. Wanted to show the difference between the stocker and the 60mm.
