Hey a buddy of mine says he knows a kid who has 2 20g turbos on a v6 3g eclipse. I find this very hard to beleive... is it possible, worthwhile, and/or doable?
 
That one tips the BS meter quite a bit, but actually, if it could be done, I think twin 16G's on a 3G would be kinda nice. I do know of a couple fast 3G's out there. Like Grilf said anything is possible.
 
Sounds like a load of bull dookie...

To turbo a NA car, they hafta keep the boost low because the compression would be so high. Then, to twin turbo a NA car? That would require opening up the engine and changing stuff that would definatly have to be totally custom made and fabricated just for this particular car.

Wouldnt this cost thousands and thousands of dollars? Cost more than the car itself to do this I would guess.
 
All i know is that it was hard enough for Dougs Dyno Power to design a single turbo setup for the 3g eclipse due to the lack of room in the engine compartment. I doubt a twin turbo setup would fit at all...
 
You can think of it like a 20g coupled to a "1.5 liter" SOHC engine... and when will that thing spool? When you hit redline? Will it ever spool?

It would be cool to see a 3000gt engine in a 3g, but it's not gonna fit (with DOHC, two turbo's, and not to mention it sits the other way).

hahahahahahahahahahah... and i suppose he told u he runs 40 psi boost :D bahahah.. sorry dude,, ive heard a few like that lately just kinda makes me lol.. if he has done that conversion it must be slower than standard.. otherwise hes full of BS...
 
Guys this is off topic but bullshit anyway...

I have been challenged to race a 98 Eclipse GS-T that has
an ENGINE SWAP he swapped our infamous 4g63 for a fully built INTEGRA TYPE R ENGINE WITH SPOON PARTS... this shit is so crazy im still laughing I cant wait to see the car or the swap.
 
You are kidding right.. Why don't I buy a type-R and swap in Eclipse body panels?

hmm, i used to assume one swaps a bad engine for a better engine, but this turn of events has obviously thwarted that theory
