I have this ass of a friend with a Stock 90 Civic SOHC 1.5L (Manual Trans)(with a duct Taped on Autozone High Flow Filter lol) that wants to race my 1.8L (4G37) Eclipse GS (A/T)I have recently purchased and installed: Rear/Front Upper Strut Tower Bars, Injen Intake, And Custom Installed Catback AIRMASS THUNDERMUFF EXHAUST(LOUD AS H*LL)... I Have also Upgraded the plugs From Stock NGKs to Bosch Platinum 4+ Plugs, Bosch Wires and Dis Cap/Rotor... bought the Eclipse 3 months ago for $800 with a Major Trans Problem...The Car Would Not Move at all the trans chattered majorly... I have been in the process of rebuilding the A22 A/T and found that the Pressure Washer had exploded (probably do to the cause of numerous Nuetral Bombs) causing the pieces to float around the trans and chew the livin sh*t out of the Planetary gear set and most of the other parts... Well I ordered all brand new internals... painted the trans cases... and have begun to put the trans back together... Everything i have purchased has not been in any way OEM... I got a lot of the parts from the Trans Tech Corp and many other... all together in parts i have spent over $4400 in parts not including the transvalve body... It is a true Racing A/T... Do you think this car would destroy his Civic or not??? If anyone knows of any high performance NT parts i could put into this it would be helpfull(or websites) I figuring im running about 115-125 HP... what do you think
oh yeah and i have 16" American Racing Rims(Yeah I know they suck but they came with the car) with Kumho All Season Racing Street Tires... Any Info Would be Great, thanks from one Mitsubishi Lover to the Next

the best thing you could do for your motor is to turbo it. since you seem experienced with motors im not gonna go into a whole shitload of details but search around here some, there are a couple of people with 1.8 eclipse with t3/t4 turbos. its not as easy to make power with as a stock turbo car but since you already have 4k in a trans that wont work with a turbo motor........

So pointless to race such slow cars, and I hate to break it to u, your only running about 92hp. Good reliable motor, and good gas milage on the bright side.
