I love your car. By far, one of my favorites on the forum.

A lil bit about the Candy Eclipse
This car use to be a nt (thats right)
It also has 5 other DSM's in it.
So far It has been to 187MPH
Mods thus far?
Where to start where to start.
Lets begin with the engine.
It is a seasoned 2.0 6 bolt 4g63 6-bolt block, with balance shafts removed. As far as the rotating assembly goes, it a proven set-up consisting of crower rods, JE pistons (9:0.1) free floated with arp mains and head studs. All speed balanced to 15k RPM She rumbles and shakes down low but when the rpms climb its like music.
The Head sports ferrea super alloy valves with ferrea valve guides, and crower springs and titanium retainers, porting is excessive. The bump sticks of choice are HKS 272's.
Original Turbo was a pte 57 trim, But Now has a custom FP/ Garrett GT35R With a 44mm V-band gate on it.
I am fixing to put the ems and injectors in and who knows what the future holds. All I can say is I am looking for 550+ on pump gas, and a top speed past 190
I will post newer pics of the engine bay soon.

I agree, but that car is super nice. How do you plan on hitting 550 on pump? Props!Morpheus said:
A really nice tune and everything to support it, Just thought I would share the other things done to the car and plans as well.
I am on transmission #6 clutch # I forgot. All bushings in the car have been replaced with prothane, I have done some unsafe removing of metal as well to bring the weight down. It has agx's and eibach sportlines at the moment.
My plans to do 200mph
Thin aluminum sheet metal the entire underside of the car, enhance the stock spoiler to increase downforce, more unsafe metal removal. Cage. Swap the sportlines/ agx's for coilovers. Add Stoptech brakes.Dual plate clutch, and a built transmission. Also when I do hit 200 it will be recorded. Anyone want to ride with me?
I have a bunch of other stuff with the car too but you guys can probally figure it out.
