Bronson,
Michigan
I know there’s info all over the web about these cars especially on this site but I would like advice/feedback from others directed towards me. I recently bought a 97 and a half (98) eclipse gsx with 73k original miles with barley any rust. My current goal is to fix what little rust there is and maybe do some upgrades. Not saying that the car is a unicorn but considering it’s a Michigan car that’s basically all stock rust free and has less than 75k miles it kind of is a unicorn. At least to me. Should I leave the car the way it is? Since it is a fun car at the end of the day. Or should I do some upgrades to get close to that 400bhp range? (Nothing too crazy) No link atm but I am looking around for one. It does have a wideband (needs the sensor installed) oil pressure and boost gage. I am currently at 16Ibs on the stock 14b with a boost regulator. Rear posi as well but that’s all I really know about the car. If anyone thinks it’s worth putting some decent parts in without affecting the reliability of the car please tell me your suggestions and or feedback. I’d like to run e85 and at the very least with a 20g. If I do end up dropping some money into it. Money is not an issue but I’m not interested in anything over 500 to the crank. Ps the afr is actually reading 14:8 not 4:8. The 1 doesn’t show on camera.
