You know, what you did here is rare, really, quite rare. Not many people, even ´ petrol-heads', as they call them here ( 'gear-heads' in the US) would attempt to take the engine and drive-train of a car apart, clean up the remnants, (after taking out the electrics), paint the engine bay in a number of coats,then put the whole thing back together again, as if it were a 3D puzzle. A person has to be committed to do this sort of work. You had a goal or vision and achieved it. I salute you. T.

I saved for 4 years, I am just like most of you that always wanted to do something like this, I saved, figured out what I wanted to do and did it. Thanks for the kind words. the Denso 660s run like 720s and yes they are maxxxxed out at 86% duty cycle with the fuel pressure raised a bit. The new 1000cc injectors didn't fit because of my intake manifold so they had to tune on the 660s.

Your video is the reason i took on an eclipse project. I hope you see this almost a decade later. Ive watched your video dozens of times to keep me going. What a time to be into cars. I hope to revive my gsx in 2023. It be crazy to hear back from ya.

Thanks much for posting this video. I think you made the right call to target a reliable 400hp instead of getting caught up in the biggest-horse numbers game. Good design is about finding the right balance for what you want to achieve. Things like longevity, reliability, the fun of doing stuff yourself, and artwork also matter. Not going broke is also a plus. :-)

Just came across this. This really inspired me to do a lot more of my own work to my new can. Just bought a 2002 Eclipse GS, a little beat up, but is still the best car I have ever driven so far. Thank you for taking us through your project, it was really enjoyable. Have a project of my own I need to start on.
