New exhaust system for anywhere from a few hundred to about $1100 will give you some minor gains. Aside from that, upgrading the pulleys for a few hundred are a good investment, or even the cam gears are helpful, for as much as $800 though. Aside from that, Iridium sparkplugs (at around $12 a piece) boost HP and acceleration slightly. Hotwire ignition wires increase the HP and torque about 5% and cost a couple of hundred. That should get you started.


oh no man. pulleys & cam gears don't do jack on our cars, purely a waste of money.

I would imagine if your saving for a turbo kit, the basic kit we offer looks like it's coming into your current price range. That would be a nice kick in the pants. It's the first thing I'm doing if I get a Galant.


Are you talking about Mitsubishis in general or just 3G Eclipses?

Lol I was about to say. Thanks for clearing that up.

Sorry about saying the cams and pulleys then, lol. My mistake.

It's a warm air intake, the filter is in the engine bay, as opposed to the cold air intake where the filter ends up outside the engine bay.

3Gs take well to cams too, just not by gears alone.

Correct, because cams are altering the volumetric effiency of the engine.
