I went in to Mitsubishi today and talked to Jim (the machanic who was working on my car) and he said I have burnt valves. He's having the head sent in to be rimmed, and ya I'TS UNDER WARANTEE!!!!!!!! Jim said that he should have it back by tomorrow and I'm guessing that I should have my car by the end of next wee I'm not going to put the turbo kit back on until I get an exhaust, so I was wondering what's the best exhaust for our turbo'ed 420A's. I was thinking about getting the Tanabe muffler and having the piping to the cat made. What do you all think??? Thanks again for all your guys help and support, it helped me a lot!!!!!!!

I use to have a White 99 GS Sport with a Star Stage II Ball Bearing T3/T4 turbo...it was fun untill....well those who remember me know Oh Ya...this is what I have now... a 99' GSX...

thermal 3"...cut the flange off though and weld a 3" flange on and run a 3" high flow cat or test pipe

Blah..

CUSTOM!! Forget the high priced chrome pipes and stuff.. Go to any local muffler shop and tell them you want 3" pipe put in from your downpipe (or cat) all the way to the muffler. Don't let them give you any shit about it. It's cheaper, and just as effective as any aftermarket exhaust would be. i paid about $100 for mine.. 2.5 inch turbo-back.

congrats....so I take it you not having to pay for anything??? if so, that is hella cool...
I'm with Dino about the custom 3". Fu#k places like Greddy and HKS that charge 600+ for a full catback. I bet it is all made by the same company over in taiwan. Hell you might just be paying for a Pilot muffler...who knows.
just my 2 cent.....

I helped a guy hook up NOS on his GST and he had 3" pipe ran STRAIGHT from the downpipe to an APEXi dunk. Looked nice. He was lowered 2" too. He said it picked up 50 hp on the dyno (with no cat though) Only prob was it scraped the ground every now and then.

Shit is all apart. Typical...

3" mandrel bent pipes????? if so, that's good

So when you took the car back to the dealer how did you make it look like it never had a turbo on it. Oil pan holes are stil there right? And what are burnt valves?

Thats nice that you still got warranty to cover you. How did you do it. Did you install and remove the turbo kit yourself, and make it look like you did not have one.

99 Eclipse GS

Ya, I took EVERYTHING of Even the oil pan, I used my friends 95' oil pa I don't know what burnt valves are, but I talked to Jim today ( remember...he's working on my car ) and he said I burnt ALL my exhaust valves!!!! All 1 But I don't have to pay for anything and I got a loaner car!!! Cool uh?

About the exhaust, that's what I wanted to do, get like a cool muffler like a tanabe, and get a custome 3" pipe to the cat. So I guess that's what I'll do. What muffler do you all recomend I get???

If u don't want the muffler to scrape, get a DTM style, or the GREDDY EVO. My muffler scrapes some and I am lowered about 1.8".

I bet those technicians are sitting there, scratching their heads wondering how those valves got burnt.

My dad: "So that thing make your car faster by allowing exhaust gas to exit faster...?"
Me: "Um, no dad...The exhaust gas makes this little thing spin, which on the other side here compresses the intake air"
