I have a 2003 Eclipse GTS, bout 220 hp at the crank right now.*

I have an ACT 2400, and I launch at about 1500, give it half throttle till about 4000, then jump on it.* I also have Z rated tires, and variable valve timing.*

...and I know no one cares either...**

maybe it'll help :razz2:
I want a run :-)
what ya got?

:beer:
James picked up my buddies '97 GST Spyder :woowoo: [/b][/quote]
The only FWD I've ever lost to DSM wise would be Hughes... For good reason.

And well I flew past Nash one night in his purple GST, I had about 30 MPH and about 2 cars when I hear him stomp it in 5th, I'm in 3rd, and well, it wasn't pretty...

It's got no turbo, but it's mean up top. Kept with an older 4.6 mustang on a highway run, he walked me at 150 cause that's rev limiter...

My car is purple to?

"he walked me at 150 cause that's rev limiter..." uh oh! i'd shit my pants before we got to 150 i think oh wait 2G 137mph gov.

Actually, I'm pretty sure a friend and I will come down to Preston Trout days so maybe then!

Let's run sometime (on the track of course) jk

What mods??

[jimwross]

I live up north (fargo) :-\ but def. sometime. Just got the car a week or two ago, so just starting to collect the parts.

14b, 2g install, walbro 255 and mbc within the next week; by trout day's should have turbo back and hopefully a supra side.

How about you?

AEM CAI, 2400 ACT, Some "custom" exhaust work, some sticky rubber, and a really good left foot...

At full weight with subs stock, I ran a 15.6 with a 2.4 60ft

Stripped stock I ran a 15.0 with a 2.3 60 ft

We'll see how I do stripped this year...

[JDM]

It will be the race of the CENTURY!

Or maybe just a really good run...

I just need an aluminum wing and then I'll definently win. Has to be 24" or higher though.... ;-) ;-)
