I have a 2000 Eclipse GT V6 Manual.....and finally after buying the car a couple months ago, between now and then have managed to save some cash......

I'm looking to make it faster, not looking for miracles, but what can I do to make it move a little bit more, just throw out some ideas, cheap or expensive, nothing crazy, like things under $500, but anybody that has a combination or one or two things that would work well together to make it a little faster.

Thanks

Cold air intake makes a noticable small difference to the GT. But your not going to make it much faster without spending lots of dollars

Tearstone.com. Larger throttle body will give you a better result, but you need to add a complete exhaust system to get some good results out of any of it.
