Default Need a turbo

I am going to be getting a Mitsubishi Eclipse RS (95) and I want to put a turbo on it and I was wondering what you guys might suggest. I was told that Turbonetics makes real good turbo kits. So for all you people out there who have eclipses with turbos and others who know alot about them feel free to give suggestions.

I'd look into a GS-T turbo motor instead of trying to build that old Neon motor. Most hardcore DSM guys will tell you that you are wasting your time on anything but the GS-T motor. They'll also tell you to get the first gen bottom end. Just ask around.

I was told that you can't put a gs-t motor into a RS eclipse. Well you can but there is a ton of shit that you have to do like tranny and the all wheel drive and all kinds of other shit. Hit me back

Are you still going to BMS on Saturday or Sunday? Take a look at http://www.dsm.org/ and http://www.dsmtuners.com/ .
