I own a 92 eclipse. I just got exhaust for it. What should my next step be? I need to know of some inexpensive upgrades for my car so I can get a little more performance out of it. What are some good parts I can buy for my car?

Thre is a "sticky" thread with free mods at www.racingknowledge.com. Should be some good tips in there, if you havent done them all already. The next step would typically be an intake of some sort, then perhaps a MBC.

yea you can beat a civic but not much more i had one for awhile still do actually it just needs a motor :biggrin: well if you dont want to trade it for a turbo do the usual mods intake/exhaust do a good tuneup new plugs/wires/distributor cap and rotor (yes 1.8's have distributors), run some fuel system cleaner, then you could try some lightweight wheels and tires. cant think of anything else off the top of my head but that should get you started

Im just asking cuz i had friends w/ 2.0 4g63 n/a and they...never won any race of ne sort, one sold it and bought a firebird 5.0 and the other bought a talon tsi (500, think about doing this) and swapped motors the OTHER guy that ended up w/ the sold eclipse races around town all the time ... and minivans outrun him...
