Can some one tell me some non-turbo mods that i could do to a mitsubishi eclipse 1998 rs to increase horsepower? Im going to see how much horsepower i can get on it without a turbo, also if anyone can give me an expected horsepower gain on the mods they list that would be awsome thanks guys I know a few mods but id like to have em all listed on here so i know what im looking at

Thanks for that info. I have an RS as well. I don't care about it being an RS
just as long as I am driving an Eclipse. I wish it were easy to sell it and get an
turbo car that hasn't been ASS raped by a previous owner. I would love a turbo
Eclipse but today just ain't the day.

go to http://www.hahnracecraft.com/ if you want to turbocharge your eclipse rs for about 2300 they provide all you need, pretty much all you need to do outside of their kit is exhaust, boost gauge(optional), Boost control (optional), turbo timer (optional) in total you can supercharge your car and get around 215 horsepower with a stage one turbo for under 3 grand. you can even get around 280 horsepower with a stage 2 turbo for less than 4 grand much more fun that getting a used gsx lol

If you dont have a good amount of money, then your not gonna get alot of HP out of a 420a. And there is no bolt on mod that will give you any noticable gain, hence why people always say to just get a turbo car. If you cant get one now. Then have your funf with the one you have, and save up.

to get the most out of ur eclipse w/o a turbo. 
CAI - 200
header back exhaust w/ high flow cat or test pipe - close to 1000
raised compression pistons - to still run 93 octane i woudn't go above 10.5:1 (they have them at howell automotive) - 400
stroking is a good idea when doing internal work but extremely expensive!!!!! - 2500
cams will liven the head up - 550
and a 50-75 shot - 500
new injectors to fuel you up - 265
some kind of tuning device - minimum of 200
wideband - 225
all this may get you up to the 220-230whp mark.       OR you could sell this car, get a gs-t or gsx- put an exhaust, intake and mbc on it for about 1500 and be faster.

no prob...the tranny mods give you a lil more torque....also to keep your ride get small stuff like great oil (id go royal purple or Penzoil) and stuff like Z-Max for gas and engine...it actually worked for my montero...dont forget if u got all that power under the hood...youll need to equal that out with a good set of brakes and suspension....

he won't be getting enough power n/a to need suspension and brake mods.  that's just wasted money if you ask me othe than mabey some lowering springs.   IMO there is no point what so ever to put money into this car for power then there are soooo many other cars out there that you can pull power out of so much easier - 240, honda, 300zx, srt-4, evo, gs-t, gsx, z24, wrx etc etc.
