This may been posted before...but I'm here with my own question...
I have a 96' eclipse GS-T completely stock, But has 280k miles ...
I want a good, Street Drag car...as in , a car strictly for the straights, but full interior.
I don't want a race car drag car, because i have a GST ...FWD is laughable everywhere I go ...
I searched and I'm having so much trouble finding a similar setup, numbers, power or even charts.
I decided to go for a 20G setup, the list of parts is exactly what I want.
20G turbo
FP manifold
100-150 shot ZEX
GODSPEED FMIC
HKS ssqv
Hard UICP
HKS 272 Cams
ADjustable Cam gears
Megan down pipe
Magnaflow catback
No cat
255 fuel pump
660cc injectors
GM MAFT
Fuel pressure regulator.
Turbo timer
Blox Boost controller
DSMLink.
Power goals anywhere above 350
(As for transmission upgrades never really gotten there yet, I hear there's a lot of updgrades and mods to expand the life of the auto tranny but didn't want to step in there just yet. Maybe I wanna build this setup and blow my auto tranny to have an excuse to do a 5spd swap)
350whp might be a better achieved with a 16g but I seriously want a 20g to have enough power to spare since I'm an automatic.
I had a black GST stock motor with a Big evo 3 16g setup and I got 233 whp...on automatic. Fun car to drive but shitty tune, months later Rod knock and boom.
Why auto? Well...why not? ...but seriously that's what I ended up gettig, I bought this gst from a kid for 700 dollars, he gave up on it I restored it...and it only took 80 dollars to get her running perfect.
But after my dream of having this build started I had this long sudden change of heart and I'm hoping maybe you guys can talk me back into it. Or help me make my decision . I stopped and now literally considering to sell my auto GST and buy either a 5spd or a stock GSX...but what I'm afraid of doing is ..selling my car and not buying another DSM and quitting the scene.
