    My Baby Is Back From The Dead!

    after 6 months of driving my ACT OF DESPERATION (a 2000 mitsu eclipse 4cyl) i finally got my new engine dropped in, i also replaced my a/c and my radiator. my car is A BEAST! in my room right now i have a set of headers, a cai, struts and sways front and back, cross drilled slotter rotors for the front, and a metallica sticker for the back window (the old one peeled off) im also gonna go get a custom exhaust done with a flowmaster 40 series dual muffler. man i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!

    and a funny story. a guy at my work has a really riced out rsx (non type-s) and hes always bragging about it. guess what im going to do? put him in his place you say? why YES!

    Once said 7 seconds he'd clock.
    So his engine he goosed
    With much too much boost,
    And drove a rod through his block.

        i got a reqular bp dohc. but my car is (so my mechanic explains) geared for quickness and not top speed. yes this is a 1g, its a 92 lx. i figure ill have all the **** put in by then end of the month, im very busy. im gonna put everything on at once so its going to be an interesting difference when i first get in. i did get the rotors on because i got them in the mail really early so i put them on and they look sweet.

        how much gain you think ill get off of all the stuff i mentioned?
