Just don't buy some piece of shit DSM Eclipse junk. They're liable to blow up on you before 100k.

Cut the exhaust right after the header to complete the style with great sound.
This is the best advice hands down. Rep for very knowledgeable information.

It would only be a cripple fight.

Is your Prelude that slow that you won't say, "Oh my Prelude would kick the shit out of your Eclipse."

And why the hell would you nutswing off a Taurus? Are you fucking serious?

the kids prob 17 whose parents bought him a pussy V6 stang and he wants to know what he needs to do to run 10's! $40-50k and you MIGHT get there!

You can take two stock ecplise gst turbos and run 10's easy for under 5K$ in that car. Coming across two of those turbos shouldn't be hard as those shitty ass eclipses cranks always seems to grow legs and walk off.
