Thanks

hummm.... Damn, that might be a good race. If you race him, record it.

Is it stock turbo or aftermarket?

cooljake73

i think its stock im not for sure its quick but my cobalt seems to pull alot harder

KlugSRT-4

Well if its stock, he is not running 25 psi. Maybe high teens. I think the only way you might have a problem is if he has it tuned like a ****. But you should take him.

A buddy of mine had a gsx with exhaust, intake, and boost controller and i didnt have a problem beating him when i was stock.

edit: read your sig, YOU WILL WIN hint you can drive.

cooljake73

i dont know hes got controller stuff in his glove compartment like is said i was wasted when i rode with him i seen the car b4 but never really had a chance to check it out but i dont know but i think its still stock turbo

yeah you got a srt-4 tho lol

KlugSRT-4

Well yeah but you have stage 2 right? Then you are fine.

cooljake73

yeah stage 2 with nates 2.85 pulley and it runs hard and good

KlugSRT-4

Yup I would have my money on you.

Deathscythe

have you done any serious tuning with your ride yet? I have the same pulley and wanted to know.

I've raced a 96 talon turbo when I was stock and though he got me in first gear, all throughout from second to fourth, I pulled on him. If you do actually make it over 100 then the race is yours; those talons run out of breath while you are mid-way through third. You'll be fine.

cooljake73

yeah i have.....its been tuned by a professional

Deathscythe

yeah, I need to get mine tuned but my money would be on you also. I see your quarter mile time, what are your hp/tq numbers?

bov is losing power on shift unless he has somthing compensating for it like a gm maf with maf translator. id say that all the other stuff maybe adds him a few hp but not much, if its a gsx then you will romp it from a 40 and idk bout the dig, my buddy in his tsi talon ate a stage 2 tuned and with all mods you got plus a few and he just had some tuning exhaust and fmic but he ended up spitting really hard and we found out his one plug was bad. but now hes 450+awhp and getting ready to build more and higher boost with a new turbo... but all in all you should tear up the eclipse but watch out if it isnt the awd cuz itll be just a lil lighter and may save it a .1 or .2 at most

KlugSRT-4

bov is not losing power. If the car is equiped with a bov and a maf meter. the bov is vented after the maf so no power loss.

you will win by default, its a dsm with a 2nd gen motor, the crank is going to take a walk. if it doesnt, something else will break first.

as a friend of mine (who ows a talon) always say "the way to get in good with dsm guys is to always have tools on hand"

thats the pic i was after. also was looking for the one like that with the crank on a leash

o3nisoaso3

ok then tell me why my friends tsi talon on a dyno showed a smaller hp/tq curve right after shifting when it was vented over when it was recirculating??? slowboy racing reccomended that we put the maf after the blow off valve right before the throttle body so maybe ur srt-4 is different the way it should be set-up


my friend has a 7bolt dsm (which is known for crank walk, not the 6bolt from 1st gen) and he put down 355awhp (forget tq and crank numbers) on completely stock motor and tranny with 140,000+ miles... it ran fine for a few months til he bent 4 valves and rebuilt it now it puts over 500 to the wheels and has shepard tranny and fully built with a garrett gt3582r and he still doesnt have crank walk but once he does hes going with the 6bolt long block and even more mods over what he got now.....


all in all the eclipse is a gs-t which will be a lil lighter than a gsx but you should walk all over it. end of story

Hey man, do you have any pics of your car? I see you have the Konig Hotswap with the carbon fiber inserts. I've always wanted to see how they look on the balt.

cooljake73

go to cardomain.com under user name cooljake73 its a silver car its rated like 6th

KlugSRT-4

There is a **** tons of ways you can do it. But the best way is to have the maf meter, hole where the exhaust from the bov, turbo, and then the bov and then the throttle body. The way they told you is pretty much the same but i just wouldnt want there to be more joints in the piping for boost leaks. the meter just has to meter all the air without any exchaping otherwise you get false reading, causeing rich settings.

Srt-4s dont have maf meters so i dont have to worry about any of that ****.

cooljake73

srt-4's are just fast and im pissed i didnt buy one instead i bought a cobalt not dissing it or anything but i really want a srt-4 now

KlugSRT-4

I will sell you mine! 16500 negotiable.

You know you want this 4 cylinders of fury

cooljake73

dont even temped me man seriously lol what year is it tho i know theres a few ppl round my area that want to buy one i can let em know
