Just installed a K&N FIPK intake and a TurboXS Racing Type-H34 BOV. Parts are awesome. Car is faster, more responsive, and makes a nice "chuff" when I shift.

I have now added a boost gauge, MBC, and new plugs and wires to my arsenal! I discovered that the previous owner had the BCS bypassed, and that pressure went straight to the wastegate actuator, which I think really messed with the WG. That is all fixed and the car definitely feels better!

My homemade MBC nestled between the intake pipe and the fan. TurboSpyder19's 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse

TurboSpyder19's 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse Nice red wires, hooked up to NGK plugs. Wires are now routed straight back to the coils...don't ask, I was bored.

Installed Hard IC and Intake Piping on 8-23-04 along with 1G BOV. Both Pipes are Dave Brode pieces and very well made! Painted pipes chrome, BOV black (it came painted some strange blue sprakle color). BOV sounds SO much better than old BOV with plastic piping. Good mods for under $200!

Thanks for the comments. You have a nice car, you don't need to trade it for anything. Keep what you like and know. We actually traded in a 90 Eclipse GSX Turbo on our VR4 back in 92. We really liked it but the 3000GT's were not being sold when we got the Eclipse in 90. Later.
