Hey guys.
I just bought 99 eclipse Gs-t that is all stock, and I would like some advice on the following:

- I want to add an intercooler without eliminating my fog-lights, what do you recommend? i want something that is less than $300.
-I want to add a louder Blow off valve.
-I want to add a reliable manual boost controller.


"What is the max boost that i can boost the stock Turbo? in psi"

I am looking for parts that are somewhat cheap and good, my budget is around $500.

Thanks

 

A used greddy 2R or xs power intercooler will run you $300-400.For the other $100 either a
1g bov with a 2g uicp adapter or a ebay type s and ebay manual boost controller.I wouldnt push that turbo over 15 lbs or it will die very quickly.Get a 14b or 16g with a install kit and you will be happy.I'm actually selling a 14b.

 

dont be cheap and mod only once insted of having to upgrade down the road.

i would go with:

precision 600 hp intercooler and have ur own pipes made to fit ur car.
tial bov and u'll never have no problems and wount have to ever upgrade.
sense ur fwd i would go with a turbo xs dual stage manual boost controller.

if u want more boost u should look into getting bigger injectors and a fuel pump, but with that u will need something to tune with , once again do it once and get dsmlink.

i think 14-15 psi is max for the stock fuel setup.
just my thoughts.

 

All that on a stock t25?

 

pm'ed

 

who drives a dsm with a stock t25 lol.

 

Shooooot I did and it was pretty fun, until I upgraded lol

Get yourself a FMIC, the greddy long route (24 row) with allow you to keep your fogs. Probably find one used in your price range

Get an aftermarket intake. Injen, Dejon, or an eBay one. GET THE ONE WITH RECIRC. TUBE! *this will make that turbo spool a little louder since you are looking for that haha

Get some intercooler piping. Dejon, Greddy, eBay, whatever. Just as long as it has some beads on the ends, get some t-bolt clamps, and pick you BOV flange. *recommended BOVs would be usually the Greddy Type S, Greddy Tupe RS, or 1g BOV

A nice downpipe and exhaust opens the car up well. I personally push Megan Racing since I have never had a bad experience with them and they're affordable.

There are a lot of manual boost controllers out there. Some home made that work well, some on eBay that leak, and some that are high dollar like Forge and Hallman.

With those mods you should be good to about 15psi on that stock turbo.

 

recirculate bov wile on stock maf not good idea to run atmospheric bov just heads up

 

i run a 2g maf and a tial bov and my car idles perfect and it doesnt shut off.

 

If you relocate the maf it isn't a problem, but as far as I know if you leave the stock maf in the factory position and you change from recirculation to atmospheric venting you'll have issues.


But I drive a honda so
