[jernigan_randal]

I just bought a 2006 eclipse and now i want to get it ready to race. But there are not parts for this vehicle. So on a good note I want to replace the whole engine and get a new transmission. The problem that I am havin is that when i try to find an engine that fits in my vehicle I do this . I have heard that there is a company that makes 800+ hp with aftermarket turbo cold air intake ect. that would fit but i cant find the company or the website for the comapny if someone help me out and find this commpany i would greatly apprecated it thanks

Just because your in the army doesn't necessarily mean you can afford it. I have well over 10k into my recent build and it will only be around 450hp... 800hp is quite the high goal IMO... Also, why does everybody think they have to swap out an engine to make more power? You can easily rebuild that motor with forged internals, turbocharge it and be making a good bit of power. 800hp is gonna be way overkill dude... Just build it up to around 500ish hp and you will be able to take just about any car out there...

thank you for your recent reply. I have acutally looked into just modifying my exisiting engine but as I said the vehicle that I have is to new and there really isnt anything out there for this engine. Hence why I am looking to swap engines out. The only reason I want 800 hp as my base line so that I will be unstoppable. Again thanks for the replys keep them comin plz. I need the input of others to help. But If someone could give some websites that I can look at that I havent seen yet to find part to build up my engine to 500 ish that would be great.

Well how about this... Which motor is even in yours? All you told us was that it was a 2006 Eclipse, but there are different motors in different trims of it... If we knew that then perhaps we could point you in a better direction of where to find parts for building it up.

and how about you understand that the car is FWD. Do you know how much work you will have to put into the entire car, not just the motor to make it handle that much power. It isnt just the motor you will have problems finding parts for. And if you are unable to figure these things out for yourself then I doubt you should be wanting 800hp in a 4G eclipse because you are way far beyond over your head. I would suggest the baby steps program like the rest of the normal world and do minor upgrades in increments to allow you to learn more about your car. This will also allow time for new products to come out for the 4g, and then you will be able to figure something out. but still man...800hp. From a dig, I could probably beat you in my 3G V6 because you will never be able to get any of that to the ground...

Thank you crow for ur recent reply. I apologize that I didnt put my engine type on here. I have a 2006 Eclipse GS. Its the v4. The reason I got the smaller engine was cause gas prices were crazy. But since then I have gotten another car so I wanted to work on this one and make its a race/show car.

Well I tell ya what, there sure isn't much available for that motor as its supposed to be a fuel economy motor... I think you would have been much better suited for a 1g or 2g DSM because there are so many parts available for them and not to mention they are AWD...

Tearstone is the aftermarket spot for 3G Eclipses. You could try RIPPS Mods too. They are mostly superchargers. As for putting 800HP to that motor.....thats a llittle crazy. Like what was stated earlier, you need to do more work than the motor. Try going to www.nippon-motors.com . You can find motors & transmissions straight from Japan cheap. Less than 30k miles.

To bad its an American engine.

[superbill976]

You can buy a Mitsu engine for that from them. I looked into it when I had my 01 GT.
