is it tuned or did he just install that stuff and call it a day. if its not dyno tuned all that stuff could have messed up the engine. and if he's got in dyno tuned that sounds like a decent deal. also make sure the milage is correct. thats pretty low for that year, and especially since its an eclipse. just check the title. if it says "0" or is blank just assume it has 200000 miles on it.

Mods decrease value. I wouldn't pay a penny more than 4k.

thats a matter of opinion. they can cater to someones tastes more.

IE, i'd rather have a vr4 with 16g's, full supporting mods a pioneer deck and 2 12" subs then a stock one.

but if it was ridden to shit and what not then yeah, it does decrease. so again, depends on what you want.

But on the other hand, you will never, ever, ever know how a car was treated that was previosly modded. 9/10 people don't even go by the upgrade path. So to the guy who wants to sell his 2g with a wally 255, 770 injectors, fmic, no fuel controller, and a stock turbo and smic...he can keep it unless he goes low to the ground on the price.

That 6 puc clutch is a deal-breaker for me. But if you are just going to use it to drive every now and then, or for parts for your GSX, then it could be worth it.

As a dd though, that clutch sux serious ass.

The 6 puck isn't "THAT" bad for the street.

Are you sure he didn't say 17 psi, at 7 psi that turbo is asleep.

7 lbs? That just doesn't sound right.... that's what the non-turbo guys run when they turbo thier cars....

You sure it's a factory turbo car?

If he's getting 280 hp on a dyno at 7psi, I'm willing it bet it's a 420a with a turbo slapped on it.

I don't see how 7psi would push that much on a 4g63t. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong.

You are right, but they got 16g's running around on the hahn kits, why not a evo 3 16g?

Is it possible to get that hp number at the wheel with 7psi on an evo III though?
