Honest opinion should I go the usual route and go silver rims on my green eclipse or should I try out some gold rims? I was thinking 18inch Motegi mr138’s gold
I’m thinking about buying an lsd for my fwd gst. It’s a pretty exspensive modification to do so I’m wondering if it will give me more traction which is what I’m after. I want to be able to hit boost in first gear without peeling out so will a lsd allow me to do that or should I try to find a...
91 octane is the best I have in Montana so I was wondering if anyone had any tuning tips or any advice at all for making a bit more power my goal is 300 at the crank and my super rough estimate would be 270hp right now with 16psi on a 16g. I know 91 isn’t much different then the higher octanes...

I bought these Bosch injectors off of someone on the forums here and they aren’t fitting into the fuel rail. I’m guessing I’m screwed cuz they obviously won’t fit but maybe I’m doing something wrong and not putting them in right?:idontknow:
just wondering if anyone uses one for Their fwd dsm so they don’t peel out at high boost and low gears and if it’s a good boost controller.
Also are they easy to install?
I’ve been trying for an hour and I’m starting to strip the bolt the space is so tight and the only thing I can get half on there is a huge 22mm wrench anyone have a better way?The banjo bolt that connects the coolant return line to the turbo
I’m trying to program a fob and i keep jumping a paperclip to pin 1 and pin 4 then shutting the door and turning the key from off to acc to off again but nothing happens after that when the locks are supposed to open and close a few times idk what I’m doing wrong plz help

I have a 2g eclipse with a 6bolt swap and I just bought a 16g my goal is around 300whp maybe a little less so I was wondering if I was gonna need arp head studs? And what is the safe limit on stock headstuds If I can’t make 300whp on them?
looking for 16g or t28 preferably rebuilt or core that needs to be rebuilt but would also buy a regular used with minimal shaft play
Must be genuine mhi or Garrett
I have an aem uego wideband and it doesn’t read the same as dsmlink. I read a thread about how to make it read the same by changing the max volt but how do you do that? Or is that even correct? I’m still learning link so it might be right in front of me But I need helpIt’s dsmlink v3 btw
Just wondering what price I would be looking at for a used genuine mhi 16g turbo with and without shaftplay. (So prices for both) There are a few threads about this but they are super old so I’m wondering what a good price for them in 2018 would be.
Didn’t know what part of the forums to put...

I have a 98 Eclipse gst with 127k miles that has really weird idle surge
When u start the car will idle surge Minorly not bad and will do it for a while and randomly spike up to 2k rpms then settle at around 1k rpms where it’s supposed to be (depending on how cold it is outside) but if u tried...
Ok so when I start my car and it’s cold or relatively cold (sat for maybe 2 hours) when I start up and drive it right away and try to go over 2k rpms it hesitates horribly. If I let it warm up for around 2-4 minutes it isn’t as bad and sometimes u cant even feel it. The warmer it gets the better...
so here’s the deal,Whenever I start my eclipse it idles really bad and almost stalls until about 5-10 minutes later the idle jumps and idles regular. I can’t drive it until the idle spikes so it sucks.
I’ve researched it a bit and it seems that what I need to do is block my FIAV. I found a...
so yesterday was the first day I got to drive my eclipse more than 2 miles st once and I noticed my boost gauge was reading 25psi and I was like oh shit so I pulled over and me and my friend tuned down my manual boost controller all the way down it read 12psi which made sense because 10psi is...
I have a pretty big gap between my front bumper and hood and a smaller gap between my left headlight and bumper. There are a lot of threads on the headlight/bumper gap but I couldn’t find any about the hood/bumper gap. Is there a way to fix it? Is the bumper the problem or is it the hood? Check...
I have a 98 Eclipse gst with a freshly rebuilt t25 turbo in it. I live in billings Montana and there isn’t one professional tuner in the whole city so if I ever want to tune the car I’m going to have to drive somewhere or buy and learn how to use dsm link. I was wondering how much boost I can...
I recently replaced my turbo on my 98 eclipse gst I had bought the car with a bad turbo and only drove it once before buying and taking it home and taking it apart. I got it running but it is running super rich and really bad at idle. Is idles at about 800 rpms but sometimes idles at 1000...
My turbo oil supply line is leaking at the top of the turbo I just had my turbo rebuilt and I just put it back together and everything is good except the turbo oil supply line. What tool can I use to tighten it more because it is in literally the worst spot ever and I think it needs to be...
My t25 turbo is being rebuilt rn and I will be getting it back next week. The car came with a manual boost controller when I bought it and I was wondering how much boost I can safely run on a stock rebuilt t25 turbo with upgraded intercooler,down pipe, j pipe, turbo back exhaust, upgraded fuel...

My turbo is bad in my 98 Eclipse gst it has aftermarket fuel pump, down pipe, j pipe, intercooler, etc. I just bought it so I may be missing a few things. I dont have a lot of money to spend so I want to either rebuild my t25 or replace it with another t25. Which one should I do? Plz don’t...
There is a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse gst for sale by private owner that I am looking at. It has a full 6 bolt swap,new clutch, dsm link v3, and a few other things. It’s for sale for a really good price but the only big problem it has is the turbo is burning and leaking oil and will need to be...
