2001 mustang gt stock vs 2000 eclipse gt with intake/exhaust/chip who wins?

are we talking a v-6 eclipse? I dont know much about the trim levels of the eclipses. I am going to go with the 2001 mustang gt. Is the exhaust full exhaust (headers, straight pipes, and a fart can? or just a fart can?)? Stick or auto? </P>


going with a stick, full exhaust, and intake, I still say the mustang wins. The exhaustand intake may give a little bit better output. I dont know enough about chips to form an opinion, just heard they arent what they are cracked up to be.</P>

chips can do not of different things. but i can almost guarentee the chip the guy has in the eclipse just takes the rev limiter out, so he can rev as high as he wants. thats what allot of handa mitsu guys do because there cars rev so niceley.

new eclipses are a bit slower then 95-98 gsx or gs-t modles (turbo) . depending on if he has auto or stick and what mods he really has. i think you have a more than good chance at takeing him buy a good length.

just quit worring and race to guy

they can raise the rev limiter, but i wouldnt rev a mistubishi engine up to 8K. there's only a handfull of honda engines that come stock balanced at 8K plus. only VTEC's, i think.

if its an 01 mustang...why is it stock??? its been around for over 2 years.... and no ones done a damn thing to it?<IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">

Race him. The only way you'd lose is if your a bad driver. Those cars weigh about as much as yours, and you have miles more torque.

What kinda times do ya run Maro Kid? Sounds like a sweet ride!

You can run on 7 cylinders and take a new Eclipse. They are a joke.

Haven't timed the car yet, will get track times as soon as I install the Vortech aftercooler, new tires, and get a custom PCM burned. I'm hoping for mid 11s. Thanks for the interest.

I totally agree with dan.

you should be able to take one. just make sure you get your launch down. too much wheel spin could allow him to run neck and neck with you. but you should get the edge by at least a car length. dont worry.

headers </P>


you mean header. hehehe</P>

It's a v6, didn't you read it? Which would mean it has two sets of headers. Not an i6 or an i4... those are the older ones. These have a 210-hp v6. A lil bit slow than the old turbos.</P>

I thought ot said v-6.<IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0">

He'll run a high 14 with that setup if he can drive...Not a chance you will lose, they weigh like 4000 pounds
