    Default New guy

    Well hello everyone. I have known about this site for a while. I have actually went to a Mt. Pleasent meet once. Was insane compared to around here (Augusta). Saw alot of quick cars out there had fun.

    Anyways on to the car. I own a 1997 Eclipse GST Spyder. Here is a quick rundown on the car.

    Motor: 6bolt block/crank, 8.5:1 Ross pistons, ARP headwear,Prothane motormounts, Mitsu triplelayer headgasket,Clevite Brearings, Elagle H-beam rods,and balanceshafts removed.
    Fuel: Walboro 255, Weapon R adjustable fule pressure regulator... Waiting on my FIC 650cc injectors.
    Intake: 4 inch FP intake, 92' throttle body,GM MAS, HKS SSQ BOV, 22"x9"x3 FMIC and 2.5inch Aluminum hardpiping.
    Turbo: Bullseye Vtrim. Yea I know not the greatest but I am making it external gate off the o2 housing ASAP
    Electronics: Black SAFC II, 2gen GM translator, 35lb boost and oil preassure gauges all Autometer in the 3 pod a pillar, OBDII datalogger & Black Greddy turbo timer.
    Exhaust: RRE 3inch catless DP, full 3inch Thermal R&D exhaust, ported 02housing and Ported GT exhaust manifold.
    Drivetrain: Underhood shifter bearings,CC lightweight steel flywheel, CC stage 2 (2600lb) Clutch, and Sheppard Tranny Stage 2 with LSD.

    Now some pics. My digital camera is not avaliable to meet at the moment so no real recent pics but heres what I have

    What she looked like when I got her.



    What she looks like now minus big turbo, hardpipes, GM mas and intake.



    New turbo compared to a 14b I had on there before. (taken with camera phone)



    This is a pic I love, took it the day we fit the FMIC in.



    Well when I bought her she had some hood damage. So I got a VIS CF hood from a DSMer in ATL. [sry cam phone again]



    Anyways, I love DSMs/Boost peroid. Plan on doing an AWD conversion sooner or later. I plan on making a trip to Top Speed sometime soon when I get my injectors and cams in. Maybe then I can go to Mt. Pleasent again but this time get to run with ya guys. should put 450-550 down.

    Thanks guys. BTW when I was out there, there was a guy in a BLK SRT. I was in my buddies Burnt Orange one. We raced a red Teggy with a GSR swap and a quick NA Altima. Teggy pulled HARD on him Altima kinda stayed with us which impressed the crap out of us seeing its a 12.7 SRT. Also raced a Cob Stage 3 WRX. Top end was a tie but he riped us out the hole. Imagine that :idb:
