its GVWR

gross vehicle weight rating. It is the most that your car can safely weigh including passengers and luggage. The curb weight is how much the car weights.

He should have smoked you! Here's why:

1997 Eclipse GS-T (2.0L Turbo = 210HP; 214 ft/lbs Torque)
Automatic weighs: 2976 lbs
Manual weighs: 2899 lbs

1997 Eclipse GS-T Spyder (2.0L Turbo = 210HP; 214 ft/lbs Torque)
Automatic weighs: 3142 lbs
Manual weighs: 3053 lbs

EDIT: Whoops! I forgot you were running NOS. I guess "smoked" was too strong of a word.

MSD makes an ignition box which will retard your timing incrementally. I forget the model number, but you should be able to find it easily.
