I purchased this 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT March 21st of 2008, so I haven't really had it long! Plus I have to work to pay for the car, insurance (which is a b!tch), mods, and the rest of my bills (including house note because I dont live with my parents) by myself so it may take me a while to get it just the way I want it. I hope to someday have it to showoff of the week status ;)

Spark Plug Install (9-1-08):
I was bored so I decided to upgrade my spark plugs today. My car only has 25,000 miles on it but I wanted to start fresh by intstalling Bosch Platinum IR Fusion spark plugs. They have 4 spark prongs instead of just 1 like normal plugs. I can tell a difference because the engine sounds better now and I can tell I must have gained at least some horsepower. Let me know if u are planning on doing this to your Eclipse GT and need help!
Old vs New spark plugs
Engine cover is first to come off
Changing the front 3 plugs
Disconnected intake hose then removed throttle body
This was the hardest part, getting behind the engine to remove 2 nuts and 3 bolts
Almost ready to come off, what a pain to do all this just to change the plugs!
Shots of the intake plenum removed from car
Be careful not to drop anything into those holes, that would suck!!
Finally have access to all the plugs!
Just ordered a JL Audio Clean Sweep to install my bump (A pair of 12" Audiobahn Flame Q 1000 Watts RMS each subwoofers an Hifonics amp putting out 1500 watts RMS) into my factory system cuz it already has a 6-disc Rockford Fosgate MP3 Changer and I like the steering wheel controls :)
Thinking about this hood in carbon fiber for my next mod, let me know what u think please!!
Me getting pulled over by Louisianas finest (LMAO, yea right):
