Posted by Phoenix10, Aug-10-06 02:48 PM
hey guyz! i'm in Miami and found a 99 special edition eclipse, torn up from last years hurricanes, that i had to have. problem...110K :-( after doing research on the 2.4L swap and ending up not knowing which direction was up n e more, i learned about the Howell Master Performance Kit for the 420a. it sounded much less complicated and the price seems resonable but i couldn't find much feedback on it. i'm assuming some1 has used this kit already. is it n e good?

as far as goals go...i'm looking to make at least 300 to the wheels, i wanna go turbo and maybe nitrous as well. i have a reputable shop ready to do the work. does it sound like this kit will work for me? what else will i need to buy, in addtion to the kit, to get this car ready to reach that goal? thankx in advance for your replies.

OP-
there is a wealth of knowledge on this site regarding engine building; we've seen this question countless times. In fact, THIS stickied post at the top of this section is specifically for those just like you thinking of an engine rebuild.

Use the search, read till your eyes bleed, read some more, then come back with specific questions and people will be glad to help. Generalized questions which are a product of not searching will not get much response.
