Change of plans. To boost or not to boost(free)
Yeah. My friend just got his 97Eclipse GST upgraded to a T66 + Greddy intercooler. He said I could have his stock turbo and intercooler. All I would have to do is pay for all the custom piping and shit. I know it wouldn't be a strong setup but another 20HP is better than nothing. If I were to do the turbo option, I wonder what the borderline boost(4?) would be without blowing the tranny?

what turbo does the eclipse have? if its that small would 12 lbs. still be as still be as much as 12 lbs. on say a t3/t4. i know 12 lbs.=12 lbs. but i read on honda-tech or somewhere that, i think it was 16 lbs. on a t25 would be like 6-8 lbs. on a t3/t4.

It's the exhaust manifold you'll probably spend most of your money on. Do you know if the bolts will fit right up?
On the 3.0 the manifold empties out on both sides of the engine...
