boost

Safe to say she doesn't know what boost is. I'd suggest intake, headers, exhaust for starters. Good platform to start from too, just not good crash ratings! :goodjob:

this may be a stupid question but where do u find engines like that?

redrumracer
12-24-2007, 12:40 AM
ebay, craigslist, junk yards, and prob dsm specific sites, as well as possibly the for sale section here as well, and if you do a swap switch it over to a stick also

12-24-2007, 10:51 PM
Well with going after the looks side, if you go with the tuner look with a silver or black wheel and not chrome you'll come out cheaper. You can hit ebay or craigslist .org for parts and come out cheaper than the custom shops. Going with the looks of your ride far as tinting the windows, a bodykit, hood, rear spoiler, drop springs..... you can give your ride a more agressive look and not kill the bank. Far as the performance end, most of the folks on here can tell you that go fast parts are not cheap. Especially engine swaps and turbo setups. You have a good platform to start from though, they make everything for your car.:yes:

but the are crazy the gst is a stock eclispe motor that came turbo but you cant use it. your motor sits opposite of that motor the ideal swap for you would be srt4 been done a few times, but too much work too expensive you just need 2 do basics, lower it get some drop springs off ebay. 30$ MUFFLER ebay 30$ intake ebay 30$ despite what any one says they work gr8 and are cheap, im sure u can get a guy in install all that muffler needs 2 be welded........... you can always turbo your stock motor just go low boost with stock pistons (: sorry for all the guys on import atlanta trying 2 bang you but they dont really do much besides sit at computer

FAIL.

04-30-2008, 05:12 PM
i didnt say get full exhaust i said a muffler you know thats the thing on the back of the car in fact its on opposite side of the car as the fire wall..... you can tell cause its shiny.......... ohhhhh

why would you buy JUST a muffler? ESPECIALLY one from ebay?
1. its gonna sound like ****.
2. its gonna look like ****.
thats like saying "screw getting actual wheels, get some $35 hubcaps. it works just fine."

and just so you know, the firewall is what separates YOU from the motor. it kinda runs from one side of the car to the other, so i dont know where the opposite side of the car from that is.

logic is your friend. use it sometimes.

wow your trying so hard to make sense but dont have the power......
the exhaust is in rear of car the firewall is behing the motor......... and your weak comparisum is garbage........ anyone can get same stuff off ebay you can get from the aftermarket shop sound is same cause the air flow or restriction is the same......... and i would say dont buy rims from shop get them off ebay cuz same thing just no extra fees........... no light bill no rent no employees no middle man equals cheaper

logic is something dumb people have to use to find the correct answer i dont have to use logic to solve problems............ go on google look up some one elses quote real fast and try to sound cool may work

HAHAHAHAHAHA wow. first of all wtf is a comparisum? and no, ebay stuff is not the same as quality aftermarket stuff. if it was, my ebay header would fit just the same as a racing beat header, and would give the same power. right?

but it doesnt. i have NO low end power and it hits the firewall. thats a fail. the sound will be different for many more reasons than just airflow/restriction. not all mufflers sound the same. if you buy an ebay muffler, i guarantee it will sound like crap.

and ebay wheels? yeah, if you arent looking for lightweight, strong wheels, ebay would be fine. but dont ***** when you break one off and hit a tree.

and you just pwned yourself by saying that you dont use logic to solve problems. i dont even know what to say about that. lol is all.

i can get the same name brand stuff off of ebay that u can get any where else
ebay don't just sell cheap stuff the have good stuff too. and you mock my spelling then misspell owned.......... wtf?

and for the logic part...... you would use logic to narrow all the wrong answers down so there is only one remaining and the logically is the correct answer. I'm sorry but i don't have to do that i know the correct answer long before i have to eliminate the wrong answers.

and i know plenty of people that have ebay high flow cats mufflers ever full exhaust headers and it all sounds about the same as the name brand don't care how much you argue it.... my buddy was pissed when his greddy evo exhaust sounded just like everyone else's.

it don't have to cost a lot to work or work good and i would love to come to varsity but too long of a drive for me.
