This is my result of many years of resarch and work-in-progress.  I am the original owner of this 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS (non-turbo).  About 90% of the engine work was done at the same time, so this car essentially went from having 140 base horsepower to 352 front-wheel hp and 306 ft. lbs. torque (at 14.5psi boost) overnite (literally, granted the car was in the shop for a few months).  Daily driven at 15psi.  Hahn RaceCraft kit (stage V) with FMIC, fully-built engine/tranny, Modern Performance 60mm throttle body, and Hahn Portfueler (supports 28psi - i've yet to take it over 15psi).  Full Energy Suspension bushings, polyurethane motor/tranny mounts, 3" turbo-back Thermal R&D exhaust (sounds amazing, btw), TEIN Type Flex full-coilovers with EDFC, Greddy Profec B Spec-II boost controller, Defi Link EGT, Boost, and Oil Pressure gauges.  Basically, I took the car in to the shop (bone-stock) and drove off (months later) with the biggest smile I've ever had.  This is ACTUAL flat-black paint (NOT spray cans or primer), and includes sealant, hardener, and a satin clearcoat.  Many thanks to SVS Performance Engineering in El Paso, TX for making this project/dream possible.  Thanks for looking!!
