Hey all, so far im slowly but surely learning what is currently installed on my car. The previous owner didnt really know jack didly crap about what he bought. Here is the list so far:

eprom ecu (unsocketed)
4g63 (rebuilt in march 2012)
16g turbo (installed november of 2011)
3'' custom turbo back exhaust
K&N intake with MAF adaptor
Tial type-rs BOV
Manual Boost Controller
Eibach 1.5'' lowering springs
smoked tail lights
srt-4 fmic with piping (not yet installed)
Walbro 255lph fuel pump


Kinda at a standstill right now, not sure what to do from here. Ideas? I know i want to do the Avid motor mounts, and a trans replacement sometime soon. Car is currently running 10lbs of boost, not gonna go higher than 14-15lbs on stock internals, looking for a little more umph from the car, any ideas?

What is wrong with the trans? What size 16g? Post up the part number. Regardless, I wouldn't recommend touching the boost at all without at least a wideband. You will need larger injectors to run much more boost. Install the FMIC as well, they help out even on stock boost. And lastly a tuning device. I would suggest skipping straight to DSMLink. If you have an early 95 (check your production date) you have EPROM ECU so DSMLink would be simple and cheap to install.

Also, check out this link. It's for people looking for 350hp or so, but it's a great mod list to follow.

Want 300-400hp? Newbies LOOK HERE! 15 things you need to be fast and reliable. - DSM Forums: Mitsubishi Eclipse, Plymouth Laser, and Eagle Talon Forum: DSMtalk.com

But basically, your goal is to gain the supporting mods for a certain power level, and then crank up the boost and tune accordingly. Your stock internals can hold 400hp so you will slip the stock clutch long before maxing out your engine.

PS- DSMLink is the same thing as ECMLink. ECMLink is the company that produces DSMLink.
 
Trans issue is the reverse and 5th gear synchro is messed up, also reverse is damn near impossible to find in the gears while trying to shift to it thanks to the previous owner. I believe its a small 16g, ill get the part # off of it later this week when i get under the car again. As for the year, it does have an eprom ecu, i forgot to post it up with the original list.

Thanks for the heads up on eculink LOL, kinda a dumb mistake but i havent done much research into tuning programs, as ive never done tuning before so i'll cross that bridge when i get to it. Thanks for the advise and the link!

Also, given the fuel pump im using, what size injectors would you suggest for a moderate 350whp build? Currently im awaiting an OBX fuel rail to incorporate into the system, along with an FPR.

nevermind, found a set of 650s for sale which should do the trick :D
