Hey everyone, been around for awhile, searching the forums, and have never really posted anything. I currently have a mostly stock '99 rs that I am loathing that I bought a couple years back (The reason I have joined this forum :thumb:). This summer I will be leaving for 3 months to work, and am going to come back with a fair chunk of change. Will be selling my rs, to buy a stock gs-t or GSX if I could find one within 300 miles. My ultimate goal is to get a 2g up to around 310ish Hp as a daily driver. Willing to spend some cash on quality parts, but I'm sure the parts I have compiled are way more expensive/over the top than necessary. Looking for some info on what else I will need other than these:

Again, looking for advice on what parts to change, what other parts to add, experience with certain brands parts, what is bad/good. And what Sort of parts I would need to upgrade both on the Bottom and Top end of a stock gs-t for 300-310 hp.
 
My first, as I said at the beginning of this forum, was a rush buy, and oh man did I regret it! Finally selling it so I can make an educated decision when getting my next car.
And with the whole maintenance thing �� I have bookmarked the tech page on all the maintenance things to do :) thanks guys, if you see any gsx in the Washington, Idaho, Oregon, California that you aren't going to buy yourself let me know haha

first gen Eclipse gsx trrans/transfer case/ Clutch
I believe that a 92 gsx tran would connect to any 4g63 engine correct?
Like this tranny could go into a 98 GSX. Correct me if i'm wrong haha
 
An Evo 3 16G would get you anywhere from 300-325AWHP with pump gas if tuned right, and also spool is fantastic, look for one used in the classifieds and rebuild it yourself.
 
Yeah, I was thinking about driving down and performing a compression test to see if anything was messed up in the head, If it didn't hold compression I was thinking about offering 1.2k, (cars run expensive in Idaho for some reason), and 2k if it held compression
 
Is this thread still focused on the turbo choice and other parts feedback? If not, please start a new one and mark this one as Resolved so people can quickly identify that the question has been answered. Thanks.

As others have said an Evo 3 16g is the idea turbo for 300hp and is by far the best choice for a 1g. If it's for a 2g and stock appearance is more important than power, the Big T28 is good, but it's not as good a value as the E316G.

Have you ordered from dsmparts.com yet? I'm curious if that website is real or fake.
