ok, i've been wonderin what a Talon Tsi and a 92-99 Eclipse GSX can hit on a 1/4 mile, with boosted up to like 5 psi or 7 psi?? I heard they can hit mid 14s, not bad for a stock, turbo, AWD car??

Stock they run more than 5PSi. You can expect mid 14s from a blown DSM. It is about average.

i've been reading up road&track, to car and driver..
94' eclipse gsx ran 14.6 forgot the mph
98' eclipse gs-t ran 15.1 @ 92.4 mph

wut about the 99' Eclipse GSX??

stock, 1st gen's will run faster times than 2nd gens. 1st gens have a 14b, much better turbo than the t25 that 2g's come with. they also have a metal bov instead of the cheap-o plastic one. they weigh alot less as well. bone stock, the cars will most likely be around a 14.7-15 flat, depending on driver and condition of the car. by the way, stock boost level is 9psi, i dont even know if 5psi is possible, i had my boost controller completely minimized when i threw a new engine in and i was still hitting 7psi.

so how heavy are the 2nd gen. GSXs'?? kno they are weaker, but i hear and see that the 2nd Gen. have 210 HP and the 1st gen has 205 Hp, but how heavy are the 2nd gen GSXs'???

double posted. woops.

2G GSXs weigh around 3400 lbs.
1G GSXs weigh about 3200 lbs.

Some carbon fiber and light rims will knock that down some though. There's a guy who runs 12s on the stock turbo with weight reduction. I think its high 12s but impressive nonetheless.

also, fyi: 1Gs put out 195bhp, 2Gs put out 210. (turbo'd of course)


*edit* there's more than one guy, but I was talking about someone who posted in a forum... :smile:

The 14B is officially into the 11's --> http://www.dsmtimes.org

you should've posted the info here so I wouldn't have to search for it. Maybe the page hasn't updated yet b/c I don't see it listed :confused:

:confused: Thats weird, it was there, now its not, oh well. It was an 11.8 or something like that

Thats funny, it is gone. Leon Reitman. 11.84 at about 114. That was at Mays import event up here. At the last one he ran 11.1 at 126 on a GT13. He ran low 11s on a 20g like 3 years ago, so hes an experienced DSMer to say the least.

And holy crap, this is a whole serpate forum? lol
