3g eclipse turbo kit????

Yes there are a few kits made, I believe that they are twin turbo kits though. One of my real good friends has a turbo on his 3g (single) and its really not all that impressive. Honestly, the supercharger kits that are out for them, are the best for of forced induction. Also the cost of his set up is unbelievable. He has greddy emanage, greddy e01 BC (i think thats right), quaife lsd, dude this list could go on forever, lets just say to run 8psi he spent way to much money. Go supercharged, you will like it a lot more.
 
I own a 3G as well as a GSX... I recently removed my Supercharger from the 3G. I honestly feel it is a waste of money putting FI on the 3G. Granted the car does move... in fact currently there are four cars below 12sec - 1/4 miles and just over 400 WHP.

I did the works on my 3G engine:

Ported & Polished Heads.
Port matching
Honing
Blue Printing and Balancing
Forged Rods
Forged Pistons
Changed intake Plenum
310cc Injectors
RIPP Methenol / Water injection
Vortech V5G Super charger
RIPP Stage 3 Clutch
Lightened ALuminum flywheel
Fidanza Adj. Cam Gears
RIPP 2.5" Headers
HKS Exhaust
Ripp Grey Box (Fuel Computer and much more!)

The Charger system is called the RIPP SDS.

I wasn't happy in the end and I spent (Lost) lots of money. The ECU is constantly fighting any changes you make. In fact it re adjusts for timing changes, and hates added fuel computers. You can bet on rough idles, stalls, belt slipping, and lots od SES lights. But the car is a monster at that point. If you can live with the problems.

All work was done by Ripp Modifications. http://www.rippmods.com , they are in Staten Island, New York.

If you want to find out more check out this board: http://www.club3g.com, this is completely decdicated to the 3G.

There is a group of peopl in Florida that has had a bunch of success with the 3G and Turbos SO look around.

Thanks for the great info. Basically a customer came into my shop ( a motorcycle performance shop) and said he wants to drop up to 15grand on a setup for his 3g. I have a 2g, and I'm used to working on those. So basically I would just be getting him parts and he would be installing them himself. But I need to piece together a nice kit.

Ripp does work with other shops. You could call them and they may work something out for you. But, like I mentioned before... I don't think its worth the headaches. You customer may go nuts...
 
Ripp mods has the best system which is a supercharging system... i know Dougs Dyno Power makes a single turbo kit but they were having all sorts of problems controlling the fuel. If i was gonna do it go to www.rippmods.com and go with the Stage 3 kit 3gs dont get nearly the hp gains as us...

I have no experience with them, but here's another site for 3g guys...

I was one of the original owners of Dougs first 3G Turbo kits. Back then there were nothing but problems. I boxed it up and sold it before even trying to install it.

I then went the N/A route and increased my compression to 11:1. The car was at best a bit more responsive. Then I added the SDS (Superchargr) and cracked one of the Wiesco Forged 11:1 pistons ( I knew the compression was high for the SDS). SO then I lowered to 9.2:1 and thats where it is at now, Minus the Supercharger.
