Hey guys, I know these questions have been said before but i wanted to know exactly what i am getting into. I am now a proud owner of a 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS which is stock. It has a warranty of 60,000miles on engine and transmission so i will be waiting for that warranty to distinguish then i will be putting on a turbo. Right now, I am interested on whats out their and seeing where i need to set my sites on how much its going to cost. I was looking into buying a 16g turbo kit and changing out the intake, manifold, exhaust, etc. But, what our the best turbos out their and what will give me results with stock internals. Also, does anybody know any engine shops down in miami or tampa area in florida? Thanks.

tearstone.com, also talk to emonz he had a boosted 3g 4g64 before so I am sure he would shead some light on the subject for you. What I can tell you is that your motors boost limit is 15psi, its week point in the single over head cam, any mitsu heavy industrys turbo or garrett turbo is a good turbo, size depends on what you want to do with the car. The whole setup will run around 3g +/- a few hundred bucks... probally +. Lastly makes sure you get someone to tune it, thats a must.
