haha, I like how it says eclipse turbo, then by engine:, it says 4 cyl 2.0l turbo, and thhen when you actually read it says "PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS CAR DOES NOT HAVE THE TURBO IN IT ANYMORE"................retard

real cute part is that car was never turbo to begin with.

My favorit part, is the "I took off the turbo" or the automatic conversion, or manual block? and 2.3 stroker? sure.... "The Manifesto of Ricalistic thinking"

what makes you say that? The eclipse's only came with 2 motors. The 4g63 mitsu turbo, and the chrysler 420A n/a. The pic show a 4g63. The 420A looks alot different.

that was 2nd gen eclipses that came with those motors.
1st gen's all had 4g63 2.0 n/t or turbo or the 1.8L n/t sohc. no 420 came in the 1st gen. EVER. and what makes me say that is little things that you can pick out if you've done turbo DSM's in the past, of which I had 3. and have worked on several others.
also 2nd gen convertibles also had the larger 2.2 or 2.4 or whatever out of the ptcruiser if they were nonturbo. thanks bud :) don't question me on DSM's

yeah, it's a 2.4L version of the 420A.

I don't know what's worse, if this guy is BSing, or if he actually intentionally downgraded from a 5speed turbo to an auto N/A!

Well, for bracket racing auto's are great, but I don't know why anyone would swap out a turbo engine, and from everything he talks about I'm about 99% sure he's BSing.

sheer brilliance. i dunno whether to laugh more at the manual to auto swap, or the fact that it took 5 other cars to build it, and its still a pos.

:duh: :wtf:
