Its amazing how you get 408hp off that stock engine like that...Im getting a 20G but am afraid of installs because I been to told so many so many things about upgrading my DSM. Most were previous DSM owners and said that if I installl the 20G my engine blow and shit. But I see you kickin out 400+ on a stock enigine, what the fuck so it can be done??
As long as you have supporting modifications and a proper tune, you'll be just fine at 400 WHP. If I had cams and a better intake manifold back then, I think I would have been right around the 470 WHP mark. This same 7-bolt has surpassed 600 WHP now, but on forged internals.
@99GSTracer Yea i believe that you have a nice free flowing exhaust and a good intake which is helping relieve alot of strain from restrictions and etc... but i know what you mean..
just pump gas ? or is there alch injection with it I never understand why people say on pump gas then i find out theres also alch injection or something over here we have only 92 octane
@99GSTracer hey how hard was it to convert your gst to a gsx? did you need to make some custom stuff or did you just swap gsx parts into the gst and bolt it in?
@99GSTracer dude a 420a motor with no forged internals or any prep for a turbo would blow itself apart if 27psi was put to it. mine is only tuned to 23 and its not safe with the stock headers.
@99GSTracer So how did it only take you "8 to 10" hours to convert? Fabricating motor and tranny mounts and bolting up all the AWD components (driveshaft, front and rear diff's, beating a tunnel out for the driveshaft) suspension, wiring harness, computer, relocating the gas tank seeing as how it's on the opposite side. i could keep going. You must be god or something lmao
@jkonn7 nah not really, the 420a seems like its more reliable, but it wont get you the same hp numbers as the 4g63t, but its a good little engine for a daily driver. i test drove one once that would chirp the tires in third gear, which i was very suprised about, but its not a bad motor
Questions : what limit to hp on a front wheel drive car is there before you need to put bigger and fatter tires on the front? aaaand how bad is your torque steer with 403 whp? jw! thanks for your time xD
You'd have to addres traction issues with 300 WHP. At 400 WHP, I was spinning through 3rd gear with an LSD. I don't knowabout wider tires. I gave up on FWD right after this trip to the dyno. This car is AWD now, and it's been one of the best mods I've done to it so far. Torque steer wasnt bad at all with a Quaife LSD.
@99GSTracer hey thanks for the response! i was asking because i would like to restore a 2g eclipse one of these days and was not sure if i should got gst or gsx ^.^
@SomaComa89 it depends on the weight of the car, the suspension setup, ture used and even surface driven on. but right around 4 is where you want to go to a bigger tire or different profile
@kouruleoblaze, it depends on a lot more things than just your turbo. a 16g will happily run in the 400 range, it's whether or not you've modded the ECU/fuel system that really decides if you're going to hit the mark or not.
@bleachworthy alright so with a performance chip and a full fuel system I could definately get 400 out of a 18g, Cause thats what i'm aiming for here 400 on a 18g
@kouruleoblaze yes, go with DSMlink, it really unleashes the true power of the stock ecu. you will want to get an AFR meter (air fuel ratio) for tuning, a wideband o2 system and a fuel pump rewire and upgrade. you can definitely get 400 from an 18g, that's a pretty good size turbo for this motor IMO
@kouruleoblaze I'd say $1,200 to $1,400 at the cheapest for parts, if you already have the 18g. most expensive is the DSMlink, that may run you up to $600 including ecu services
Yeah, had I had cams and a nice sheet metal intake manifold, I'm sure I could have made another 75-100 HP. But yes, I've long since exceeded this power level.
Yeah, I'm running 2 turbos now. I don't get on Talk much, but I'm on Tuners almost daily. Google "compound turbo dsm", and you'll find my Tuners thread on it.
I'm gthe guy that had rarely had any part fail. I've blown a differential and bent some rods, but that's about it. I've never even blown a headgasket, and I'm running 40+ PSI now. Maybe I'm just lucky.
This was an OBX ramhorn header. Basically a cheap copy of the Full Race manifold. It was a decent manifold for the price, and I never had any problems with it, but I definitely did move on to bigger and better things.
so what are the mods you have on the car on this video. I just bought one but the engine is completely appart. I'm halfway on the built and it has a turbo, intercooler, pipping and BOV upgrade but I don't know what else I need for it to run good with that upgrade.
pos all around couldnt beat a honda lol jk, man i miss that car, i rem when it was still a gs-t, u did a shit load of work to it, i know 403 is old as heck whats it doing now i heard rumors of 650 or so? hope everythings going good with man been a while yall need to come down to pensacola and show these rich kids how to race
oh that weak pos not even worth talking haha jk jk, paul thats things a beast hows it coming with it been a while since i talked to ya i moved to pensacola fl, hope the cars doing good and that twin set up is treating ya right
Why is it though that everytime somebody puts up videos with a 2G the topic of crankwalk comes up. FFS people, get a life. No need to bring it up, especially when you have no idea just what it is in the first place.
And people have made far more power on stock internals and drove it for 100s of thousands of kms like that.
Idiot? The car ran great. Never even a hiccup. Those who say it cannot be done, should not interrupt the person doing it, nor should they degrade their accomplishment. Plus, anyone who knows anything about boosted cars knows that "PSI" level is not directly relative to cylinder pressures. My compressor wasn't very large, so 27-32 psi isn't too detrimental.
Crankwalk has nothing to do with making healthy power on stock internals. My block is a '99 block with the revised multi-piece thrust bearing. Crankwalk isn't in my car's vocabulary.
Also, this video is old news. The car is now AWD, twin turbo'd, and the head and block are built.
@99GSTracer Wow, This idiot just said you were going to crankwalk a 99 eclipse!!! :D No matter how many stupid things I read online theres always some clown out there ready to top the last guy... Damn, I just went to his profile, he actually owns an eclipse too & doesnt know anything at all about his pedigree :( It truly is a damn shame.
GSX would be your best bet, first the gsx is all wheel drive, the gst isnt thats pretty much the main difference. it might be faster due to that, and really a good project car since insurence wont be high = more money for mods. it will turn heads if it looks nice, or put a bov or a nice hi power exhaust that would sound great
400 hp is nice man but like supramk4 said crank walk is a pretty big issue but if you stay on top of repairs and don't push it all the time the motor should last you awhile
what parts does crankwalk damage? i'm assuming all of the internals and the block. "can be fixed easy" if you have the money to buy a new block and some new internals. and if ur internals were aftermarket then ur fucked
seems not days to many people are wasteing there time crying about crank walk .... how about drive ur car have fun when it happens ..if it happens o well rebuild or junk the fucken car atleast you had fun with it ....unless you would rather drive to church and back and spend the rest of ur time bitching about it....
i have a 99 eclipse gst motor build up bored .50 over with full exhaust and stock turbo running 26 psi and it runs great and pulls fucking hard but i have no idea how much horsepower i am getting anyone got an idea?
Anyone who is telling you that is full of themselves. Yes there are weak links in the system mainly "crankwalk". Look it up. I know one guy selling a GSX auto with 170k miles on it, never been modded. And has the original engine.
ill second that...motion little bit ricey, nice motor though, but i wonder how long it will be goin on that stock 7 bolt, before i worried about that body id worry about get 6 bolt.. nice car tho.. props.
dont say that as 6 bolts walk as well, my buddy has walked 3 6 bolts and each time he rebuilt it all new and it still walked. yes mitsu used sub par thrust bearings in the 2g 7 bolts, but it doesnt mean that it will blow up.. any car and or motor can have many issues. its all based on how you care for the car and how you drive.. i have a 7 bolt 2.4l SOHC galant with a b16g and i have had no issues yet
What exactly do you have? You say 3", but is that a custom 3" pipe and a bought muffler? If so what muffler, or just which exhaust did you buy? I'd like something that'll free up flow without being obnoxiously load like an Apexi N1.
are you telling me that on the other side of the country they are selling high octane fuel at gas stations! that is awesome man here in california we have to either order our race fuel, get it from the track, or put in octane booster :(. Highest we get is 91...ocasionally i'll come across a gas station that says 92 :P
I don't get it I have like 220 hp with my gst, but because its fwd, I get so much wheel spin and lose time. At 400 hp how do you get traction? Do you know anything to stop the spin? thanks
Best combat against FWD traction loss = AWD swap. It really wasn't too difficult to do either. When I was on my way home from this trip to the dyno, I could rip the front tires loose @ 70 mph on command. It's neat the first couple times, and after that it's disappointing. AWD swap was my best mod thus far.
Yes your very right i own a Turbo GS and a mirage Coupe with a 4g63T swap. the mirage had bad problems with the swap at first i mean i could bust em all the way threw 4th the kind of power for the mirage wasnt good, so i took the rear end from an Evo 6 i bought and imported from japan i FINALLY meshed them and now the rage doesnt want to bust em loose at all. the GS-Turbo however i lowered the front to give it an aggressive stance and wielded the rear end makes for stiff ride. n better traction
no. the mirage handles better with the 2500 dollar AWD/Evo6 conversion. it runs smoothe now. the 99GSX will run you just about as much as an AWD Mirage will i think i spent 11,000 on engine/awd not counting body so. it IS worth it. but if you stay FWD its not. itll still be fast from a roll but good luck launching
Stock block and head, stock cams, stock intake manifold and throttle bodt, 3" exhaust, 50-trim turbo, tubular header, FMIC, 2.5" IC piping, 850cc injectors, Walbro 255 pump, dsmlink, ACT 2100 clutch and Fidanza flywheel. That's pretty much it for power mods. This is an old mod list though. The car has since been completely gone through and is expected to put down 550-600 whp now. I'll be taking another trip to the dyno this fall to find out though.
hey man i have a 97 gst im getting my rebuilt 7 bolt back next week i was just wondering for fuel mods could i just get away with the 255 pump 650 injectors and dsm link with wide band is that all i need or do i need the rail with the FPR and all the other goodies any suggestions thanks?
No, it's not too lean for 110 octane leaded fuel. If I was running pump gas, then yes, I'd have to fatten it back up. I logged zero knock in these dyno pulls.
Heavy in this case is synonymous with rigid..Hondas arent made to be race cars..thats why they are lighter...less rigid. Id take my 97 GST over any Honda (Less NSX) anyday! cheers,
thats a good point...rigid. I really never knew how to react to people when they gave me shit for my car weighing so much compared to their tin piece of shit hondas and stuff.
exactly!! (new) GTOs are heavy as hell but they fly..400 hp moves anything..the roads in australia (since they are really monaros and made there) are shit so they have to be strong platforms to holdup...just like our clipses...;)
LOL you can't compare an LS2 GTO to a eclipse in ANY way besides being heavy as lead. Plus GTO's can be Torque monsters witha little bit of work and a little suspension work goes a long way in putting it to the ground.
At the time this video was shot, I had A/C and all emmissions equipment. It's all since been removed. I'm not sure if it would pass becaue I've never had it tested. It's not required where I live.
The car now has a fully build bottom end, Magnus sheetmetal intake manifold, ported head, larger throttle body, cams, and soon to be larger turbo. I'll be shooting for around 550WHP in the summer of '08.
Back then, I had the turbo, FMIC, and basic boltons like exhaust, ACT 2100, etc. I was running stock injectors @ 14 psi and only tuning with MAFT. Alot has changed since then. :-)
Its amazing how you get 408hp off that stock engine like that...Im getting a 20G but am afraid of installs because I been to told so many so many things about upgrading my DSM. Most were previous DSM owners and said that if I installl the 20G my engine blow and shit. But I see you kickin out 400+ on a stock enigine, what the fuck so it can be done??

Anyone who is telling you that is full of themselves. Yes there are weak links in the system mainly "crankwalk". Look it up. I know one guy selling a GSX auto with 170k miles on it, never been modded. And has the original engine.

ill second that...motion little bit ricey, nice motor though, but i wonder how long it will be goin on that stock 7 bolt, before i worried about that body id worry about get 6 bolt.. nice car tho.. props.
e12dsm 2 years ago
dont say that as 6 bolts walk as well, my buddy has walked 3 6 bolts and each time he rebuilt it all new and it still walked. yes mitsu used sub par thrust bearings in the 2g 7 bolts, but it doesnt mean that it will blow up.. any car and or motor can have many issues. its all based on how you care for the car and how you drive.. i have a 7 bolt 2.4l SOHC galant with a b16g and i have had no issues yet

Nice ride, I've got a 97 GSX auto with a 7 bolt. Did you have the stock bottom end?? How long did the motor last at the horse power range??

To determine your proper fuel we need to know what turbo your planning to run and your horsepower expectations.
crusher966 2 years ago
What exactly do you have? You say 3", but is that a custom 3" pipe and a bought muffler? If so what muffler, or just which exhaust did you buy? I'd like something that'll free up flow without being obnoxiously load like an Apexi N1.

are you telling me that on the other side of the country they are selling high octane fuel at gas stations! that is awesome man here in california we have to either order our race fuel, get it from the track, or put in octane booster :(. Highest we get is 91...ocasionally i'll come across a gas station that says 92 :P
ggrizzle 2 years ago
yeah, you guys out in calli do miss alot performance-wise.
theres a place in fargo that sells race gas at the pumps, you have like 4 octane choices as well. lol.
all the way up to 120 octane i think, which is Outrageous

drzflyest4 3 years ago
I don't get it I have like 220 hp with my gst, but because its fwd, I get so much wheel spin and lose time. At 400 hp how do you get traction? Do you know anything to stop the spin? thanks
heyitskaren 3 years ago
Best combat against FWD traction loss = AWD swap. It really wasn't too difficult to do either. When I was on my way home from this trip to the dyno, I could rip the front tires loose @ 70 mph on command. It's neat the first couple times, and after that it's disappointing. AWD swap was my best mod thus far.
99GSTracer 3 years ago
Yes your very right i own a Turbo GS and a mirage Coupe with a 4g63T swap. the mirage had bad problems with the swap at first i mean i could bust em all the way threw 4th the kind of power for the mirage wasnt good, so i took the rear end from an Evo 6 i bought and imported from japan i FINALLY meshed them and now the rage doesnt want to bust em loose at all. the GS-Turbo however i lowered the front to give it an aggressive stance and wielded the rear end makes for stiff ride. n better traction

i own a mirage and i was thinking about the sawp so its not worth it??
better off buying a 1999eclipse gsx uh
1tian 3 years ago
no. the mirage handles better with the 2500 dollar AWD/Evo6 conversion. it runs smoothe now. the 99GSX will run you just about as much as an AWD Mirage will i think i spent 11,000 on engine/awd not counting body so. it IS worth it. but if you stay FWD its not. itll still be fast from a roll but good luck launching
34SkiLLz14Luck 3 years ago
yoo sick car it looks kinda rice wit the graphics on the side but at least it has sick power
burton5995 3 years ago
Stock block and head, stock cams, stock intake manifold and throttle bodt, 3" exhaust, 50-trim turbo, tubular header, FMIC, 2.5" IC piping, 850cc injectors, Walbro 255 pump, dsmlink, ACT 2100 clutch and Fidanza flywheel. That's pretty much it for power mods. This is an old mod list though. The car has since been completely gone through and is expected to put down 550-600 whp now. I'll be taking another trip to the dyno this fall to find out though.

Your tune is way lean. DSM's like to be 11:1 AFR

No, it's not too lean for 110 octane leaded fuel. If I was running pump gas, then yes, I'd have to fatten it back up. I logged zero knock in these dyno pulls.

Heavy in this case is synonymous with rigid..Hondas arent made to be race cars..thats why they are lighter...less rigid. Id take my 97 GST over any Honda (Less NSX) anyday! cheers,

thats a good point...rigid. I really never knew how to react to people when they gave me shit for my car weighing so much compared to their tin piece of shit hondas and stuff.
Marksad14 3 years ago
exactly!! (new) GTOs are heavy as hell but they fly..400 hp moves anything..the roads in australia (since they are really monaros and made there) are shit so they have to be strong platforms to holdup...just like our clipses...;)

iammalloy 3 years ago
LOL you can't compare an LS2 GTO to a eclipse in ANY way besides being heavy as lead. Plus GTO's can be Torque monsters witha little bit of work and a little suspension work goes a long way in putting it to the ground.
