How hard would it be to turbocharge a TL-s?
Besides adding an intercooler and turbo would I need a reprogrammed ECU? If I were to boost just 6-8psi i'd probably get by on stock internals and stock fuel pump.

The ultimate 1st Gen sleeper.

If he/she isn't a member on this board they damn well should be.

even if it is a f23 or f22b it could easily be puttin down 200+ to the ground. one member dynoed over 250 but that was at like 12psi on a 2.2cl.

The best are the DSM's .. two guys I know have 1st gen eclipses with a large majority of his front steel bumper supprt and fiberglass bumper sawz-all'ed to fit the ridiclously large FMIC.

Very clean 1st gen .. he'd have me fooled. and probably lay a whooping on me .. especially if its H22 turbo.

I hear there are a pair of turbo h22a's roaming the races out here, have yet to meet them though.

There is also a turbo h22a in arizona laying down very close to 400 at the wheels

I think he's been out to the Monday Night meets we host at Java n Cha. We'll be there again tonight (for those in the Dallas area). All car enthusiasts welcome. I'll try to get him on the boards...

just to throw some love out for my own kind... my favorite little 4 banger is the SR... hehe

there was a all built up lude with a 75 shot that got a first hand experience on how much I love the SR's... hehe

was it a white lude?

if so, I think I've raced him a couple of times...did he have problems with third gear?
