the evo parts are the only thing that looks good imho. the rest is right out of F&F. Also I hope you like to pay to have it painted all the time. the molded body kit will crack out all the time if you plan to drive it on MN roads. that is a show mod only

Couple things:
1. Why did you put a WRX spoiler on a 2G?
2. At least paint the front bumper mesh and support beam black.

Evo mods are nice on it though!

I was going to say the same thing.
Nice wheels too, the offset looks good.

Not a fan of taking a 2gb talon which IMAO I think is getting really rare and making it into a eclipse with a bodykit.. Just think its making a rare car even more rare... I personally like the 2gb talons and they only made them 97 98 so only 2 years as to where the eclipse was 3 and more common... However I do like and want to do the same thing that you did with evo parts and have wanted to do it for a long time. Good job on that.
Body kit = FAIL
Evo parts in a dsm = FTW

I had the WRX wing sitting in my basement and it just happened to fit so I went with it. I’ll get around to painting that stuff black when I have more time, and I’m praying the molding doesn’t break! I glued between, mudded and sanded smooth before paint pretty much just followed the body work book I got.
I don’t think I’ll win your hearts on performance; it’s mostly a daily driver, As far as a mods list goes its nothing too fast.
It has a 1g block bored 0.020” over, 2g head, metal gaskets, ARP Head Studs, JE 0.020" pistons/rings, Eagle Rods, 1mm oversized stainless steel intake and exhaust valves, HKS 272 intake and exhaust cams
FIC 750cc injectors, Walbro 255 FP, Aeromotive FPR, K&N Fuel filter SS Fuel line
Large Indy Race Core FMIC with 2 ½” hard pipes, 1g Intake Manifold and throttle body, k&N intake, Evo3 exhaust manifold, FP Housing 20g Turbo, Greddy BOV REcuric, Tial 38mm Gate, SS 3 ½” o2 Housing, 3 ¼” Exhaust all the way back
Optima Redtop Batt, NGK Plugs, High performance wires
ACT 2600 Clutch and lightweight fly SS Clutch lines, Hallman MBC, DSM Link 2.5 (Tuned at DBs by Shane)
Hawk HP plus pads, SS Brake lines, AEM drilled and slotted Rotors up front, slotted in the rear, Tokico Illumina Adjustable suspension, 1 ½” Lowered
I was only able to make 232AWHP and 219FTLBS @ 17psi on 92. Its fun to drive it hits 17lbs at 2800rpms and holds it until 7000. I want to keep it as reliable as possible for the next 2 years while I finish school but if any one has any suggestions on how to make more power asides from E85 Ill be happy to hear it. I do want bigger injectors, a new intake manifold and throttle body and exhaust manifold.
