The car could be very slow, or extremely fast.  An N/A car boosted is a scary animal to deal with.  Heck, look at mine.  There's people running 15s with a similar set up just not tuned right, and I'm running 12s.

the GS is the same thing as a GST, just iwthout the turbo isn't it? so if all he did is put in a small turbo(so it's basically like a GST) then he should be around the same numbers as the GST?

The poInt of the mans post is that there is another ricer out there who thinks he can spank an LS1. Good luck to him and if he does then give him props.

THe GS has a 420a versus the 4G63 in the GS-T

difference-420 = FF grandma engine

4G63 = built 4 cyl.




Haha thanks guys. If only there wasn't was ice on road...

So an ex-friend of mine has been talking **** about me at school due to my switch to the LS1 vs  my old Eclipse. He currently drives a POS 420a (Eclipse GS) converted to turbo w/ a cracked downpipe and all. Essentially, he tells me I've made the biggest mistake of my life telling me the only way V8's can win is with nitrous. I'm itching to race this ****er, but he tells me he doesn't race on the streets.

Sorry no race yet, but I'll let you know once the weather gets better so we can go to the track unless he pusses out like I think he will.


The car has not been converted to turbo the swap is too hard and its cheaper just to buy a 4g63 then swap one into a GS or RS eclipse by far. It may be runing a after market turbo set up but even so the LS1 will walk her no problem unless the car is built from top to bottom.

NO its like a FORD to a CHEVY!!!! The 420A is a american bassed engine the 4g63 in the GST and GSX is a japan bassed engine. It would be like trying to convert a LT1 into a 5.0. Both cars use diffrent tranys, ecu, harnesses, and sit in the enigne bay diffrent. The 420a is also a high conpression engine it can only pull low boost with out being built. You are looking around 220 Ground HP if it is well tuned with a good bolt on kit.
