Hello im looking at a 95 eclipse 5 speed non turbo with a 130,000 miles....alot....anyway i was wondering if i could throw a turbo kit in there with the stock internals...and what engine would this be if its a 2.0 DOHC? im not sure if its a gs or rs or whatever they are called...please help..thanks in advance.

bump...please help me guys

ahhhh HELP MEEEEEEEEE

chill out man

its the 420a engine by Chrysler
do a compresion test to see if worth the turbo
read the pinned on this topic

and welcome

All depends on the condition of the motor, its probably a good idea to rebuild it. Maintenance before mods. Like said above, its a 420a, it will handle 8psi max on stock internals. You can make around 200bhp with a decent kit. What kind of power do you want out of it?

+1 on the compression test, and +1 on the maintenance before mods.

Also, give this a quick read.

Get to know your car, its gets very expensive on mistakes. ECU programming is key for tunning.I know guys who turbo 420a and they run slow.

Im still researching for my turbo, these guys on this forum are so knowledgable.

the best options are megasquirt, AFC, or emanage. These units are adjustable, reflashing the ECU is a permanent adjustment that can't be changed without re-reflashing

alright thanks guys, thats what i was thinking, so i should rebuild the engine before i turbo it...i saw somewhere that its 450 for an OEM rebuild kit? how hard is this, i have rebuilt engines before in tech (car engines) but i also have a friend who is willing to help me, is this a hard process?

You should do a compression test first... You might not need to rebuild.

if you are considering a rebuilt you need to figure out how much power you want to make first. anything over 250hp you should do a performance rebuilt with better rods and pistons.

if you just want a fun little buggy then you would be ok with the OEM rebuild

+1 with everyone else on the compression test though

sorry about this question but i dont know what a compression test is....when or if i get it down what should i look out for to tell me if i do or do not need a rebuild?

Ok your done. I am revoking your posting privileges until you read these links.
