Not benchracing need to know because I might be getting the car.
Guy claims this set up is making mid 300hp.
 
Still bench racing.

If he says its 300hp, ask for a dyno sheet.
 
I just wanted to ask people that new about eclipses what they thought.

I've only been in the honda scene so I have no idea what this stuff is worth or anything.

I've always been afraid of dsm because they are known as unreliable
 
Thats a very uneducated assumption my friend. A 420a is more reliabe block wise because it's cast iron, making it stronger than aluminum honda motors. Just my .02.
 
I would suggest staying away from a car like that... 8psi making 300 hp is very hard to believe... My buddy just sold a very modded turbo 420a because of how hard it was to tune without going standalone..
 
Just put it together, break it in as it should be, give it a run and tell us of the outcome - only way you're gonna find out...

For, if all of this blows the doors off your vehicle, good for you. And if it doesn't, also good for you since it ran down the road.


For, guessing doesn't count around here ...
