Next Mod ...

[96lamboeclipse]

Whats up everyone? Just trying to get a small opinion poll from everyone on what my next mod should be ... Its possible I could begin my turbo build up now, the small bolt ons are only good for so long if you want some real power from these things .. also could go with some black/carbon fiber colored 18's or 19's, maybe a nitrous kit and a custom trunk enclosure ... Your opinions would be awesome ... Thanks guys

seems like i've heard that before .... anyone know for sure?

hmmm...dunno

I think that you should go for some dark 19's, maybe 18's (bronze looks good on white to me) to fill your big fenders, with a rather low pro tire, and after that figure out how much to lower it.

or u could get disks off a gs they have disk all the way around. as far as performance goes i ###### wouldnt mess with it. id do matenience n have a nice looking car. maybe you could lose the wing and get a cf hatch those look phat and maybe change the white wheels for some black 1's to go with the cf accents

ill check into that about the gs discs ... yeah i definately want some darker rims, wheelmax or some site i seen has some carbon fiber colored 18s that look clean, i think they'd go good, i thought about that CF hatch too but i got the wing instead, but i could possibly pick me up a CF hatch if the price is right ... anyone have some rims for sale?

anyone have some rims for sale?

I picked the ones below for $89 a piece new, 17x7, normally they run $160 but they are on sale at Discount Tires. They have 18s (18x7.5) in the same color/design for $99 a piece. I like them. I wouldn't get 19s on that car, it'll slow it down ever more.

I noticed that you said you had oil in one of your plug wells, if you change your valve cover gasket and that doesnt work try replacing your pcv valve, if its not working properly it can blow back oil in your plug wells.

ah sweet thanks alot dude ... ill check into this gasket next weekend when im home and got time off from work

Just figured I'd post an update to my old thread instead of making a new 1 ... I bought a few goodies for my turbo kit!

Star FMIC w/Piping
Greddy Type S BOV
Delta Wastegate
Vortech FMU
Manual Joe Boost Controller
Some unknown brand Manifold

Now all I gotta do is get these white rims and my carbon fiber hood sold and I'd be able to get what else I need. Found a nice t3/t4 turbo made by turboxs on ebay for like 240 shipped, believe its slightly used though, any suggestions let me know. thanks guys!

As far as I know every TurboXS turbo has failed prematurely. Search about it, it's most likely the worst turbo you could buy. Ever.
But don't take my word for it, check out the threads that say it came "unglued" or the ones where it started puking oil in 400miles.

really? damn seems like i had heard good things but since i was into turbos i dont remember you know ... but what would you recommend dude? something not too big, ill only boost like 7, i have stock internals plus its an ATX ... ive looked at the 14b, 16g and a few others, im going to search alot more so i can learn about then all
