The ultimate sleeper. 1992 Hyundai Excel weighting only 1400 lbs runing a 4g63t eclipse motor pulling 290hp, 16lbs of boost on a 16g, a aftermarket fuel pump and 550cc injectors. Work is just in progress scheduled to be on the streets this spring. Next mods include a front mount greddy intercooler, headers, aluminum flywheel, stage 2 clutch. Stay tunned I will keep adding pics through out the project. I'm moving to Florida this weekend march 17th and I'm hauling it down with me to finish it there. Sorry I've been out for a while and havent updated the profile. Everything is preety much allset right now, exept for the fuel lines (they exploded after the new pump started boosting lol). I started the car and it ran for a couple of minutes, enough to set the idle and boost. It sounded great and right when I was ready to take it around the block, that's when the fuel lines busted. The body (fenders, hood, bumper, etc.)are mounted and ready for paint and the only thing left is the interior. I'm going with race seats and the dash will be left the same exept for aftermarket gauges and Tach. The rear seat is out and gone. Just need to carpet the whole car and all set. Oh yeah, I also mounted a Eclipse's sunroof on it. It works perfectly. lol. Well, stay tunned for this month's update. I will post a video of the test run. YEAH!
