Iight im new and i checked the first five pages and i didnt find anything to help me LOL...anyways i am looking for GOOD pistons and rods that will lower my compression a good bit. I really really want to lower my compression 8.5:1 and i know it is possible because i have seen eclipse's with that compression. Now everyone tells me to look at JE pistons and Wiseco pistons with Eagle Rods, well im straight with the eagle rods but when i look at the pistons they only have a selection to bore your block .20 or .40 over. Now .40 is a bit too much but i also dont wanna do .20 so im looking for pistons that require a .30 bore and that can hold a good amount of boost without giving up on me like say 20 to 25 pounds!?

Im looking to get a nice turbo setup with a turbo that spools quick and stays constant. What i mean is a turbo that will be at full boost quick but will keep it up till redline...kno what im talkin about...if you kno a good turbo that is capable please tell me.

I also have an auto trans. so im guessing i gotta get a manual trans. thats beafed up a lil too hold the kinda horse power im going for. And the axles and stuff have to be changed if i exceed 300 hp i think im not sure please correct me if im wrong!

I am aiming to get a good 350 to 400 horses outta my RS. Now i no people think its a little crazy with the 420a but right now im in high school living with my parents with no bills or nothing so i would really like to have fun with the money i make and the car i have before i get out into the life where you have no money to have fun with :P

I want to have my own turbo setup..not hahnracecraft or the star turbo kit i wanna put the kit together myself. I read the non turbo to turbo conversion post and its a really good source to look at when building the 420a...i kno what parts i need and what i have to do to get to my goal but now im asking for help on where to find them! I also read the post with all the sites with parts for the 2g eclipses but they mostly only had parts for the turbo eclipses(that or i may have missed the parts for the 420a). Some had good parts but i KNOW there are better places to find them. Im not just looking for sites im looking for brands that can meet what im lookin for.

So any help without attitude would be nice, becuase im sure i mightve missed somethin that couldve helped :grin: lol
