here's a video: racing a DSM(dunno what year)thats running 22psi.
save target as (http://www.d-mphotos.com/movies/MevsTy.wmv)
:thumbup:
if anybody wants it, he's selling it for 12k
I have wanted to install a turbo from time to time on my 2.0 but dont think it would help out any since I only push 110+ HP anywho.
His engine looks Tight as hell too! :thumbup:
I think that is a 2G Eclipse he is racing, its hard to tell what year it is exactly.
FYI: Mitsubishi took over the DSM cars in 93 when Crysler sold thier holdings, the last DSM was made in 94 - but all 2Gs, 3Gs and Y2Ks are all Mitsu altho they still carry the same DSM principles and ideas.

i think its still a KL-DE but with the valve covers from an MX-6, and the intake from a KL-ZE. probably some more ZE in there as well. :)

make a difference!!! the 2.0's can take boost on stock internals way better than the 2.5's. most people only run 5-6psi, but there are the few that run 9psi. i have a video of a completely stock SE(minus the turbo)running 9psi and he runs 14.2's, and thats pretty damn quick if you ask me.

YES! all shall conform.
it sucks because the cars were just ahead of their time, so to speak. just think if the first gen turbo's were around now, and had the factory boost at 13 instead of having to do it yourself, there would be a cheap car to compete with the srt-4.
isn't it funny how a car that at least is 7 years old, and at most 16 years old, is still faster than '04 civics. well except for the gl auto's and se auto's :lol:

Abrasive changed my ideas on probes completely with his. and we won't talk abou how slow PSEs are. that PGT makes me want one. the PGTs around here sell pretty cheap. maybe i should get one instead of a 5.0 mustang?? just maybe.
