you could pick up 1 to 2 hp with a high flow cat

5sfe+3sgte=2.2L 3sgte
im sure if you found a way to use a 3sgte intake manifold you could use a top mount, but you would want to cut a hole in the hood and maybe even add a fan to the intercooler.

well ofcourse you would feel that way you drive a turbo eclipse.
i wanted an eagle talon so bad but i couldnt afford it, when i got my second car i had become such a toyota head that i couldnt leave toyotas.

way too loud to be a sleeper and way to loud for the amount of power it has lol. but still i love how obnoxious and loud my exhaust is.

i took the head lights apart wet sanded them and painted the insert with nightshades vht.
the passenger side headlight is showing a bit of damage, its probably time to buff them out again.
