Hi guys,
I recently got my second 98 GST Eclipse, this car came with an Ebay 16g turbo, 800cc FIC Injectors, FMIC, BOV, Walbro 255 pump, DSM link all the basics upgrades.
My goal is to keep the internals stock, run on E85 and reach 350 whp (after a complete tune-up/ maintenance). I am trying to decide which turbo would suit me better, so far I haven´t found much info about the 68HT v3.
Also, there is some controversy about the Genuine EVO 3 16G getting to those numbers (most importantly how it gets there and for how long ). I want something with a fast spool ad more efficient on the mid RPMs. I won´t intend to be Mr. Top Speed, it is really to be a fun car to feel the acceleration and play between short distances. (a "city" car).
The 68HTA costs about 40% more, however, I know for sure it gets there without pushing too hard.
What are your opinions?
Does anyone use the new HT68?
Thanks
