So what is your budget?

If you want one then make sure you get one that came turbo already because if you get a NT you will regret it because of the limitations of the engine. But 300whp is very easily achieved in those cars with a 16g and some fuel upgrades and an SAFC. Total after the car it may cost you about 1.5-2k to get it there i would think since the 16g will be complete bolt on. However being an old car there may be some maintenence that comes first

agreed w/ TheEngineer. you can get a 1st gen GS-T or GSX for under 3g. i'd say for apx 5-6k you can have a relatively smooth running 300-350whp eclipse.

Agreed. But the problem is, is finding someone that actually knows what they are doing and loves/respects their car.

a GOOD 16g like the Evo III Big 16g aka. e3b16g will take you to about 350whp with a GOOD tune. yes the turbo and N/A models have different internals.
