#27969, "is it possible to put a turbo on a 3g eclipse?"


          

I saw this v6 2000 something eclipse with turbo stickers all over it. Is it really possible to put a turbo on it? Well, I'm sure it is possible, anything is possible, but do you think its likely for someone to put a turbo on that car?

I just wanted to know if he really does have a turbo, or he is just trying to pretend that he has one.

Isn't there someone on this board who turboed a 3.0L Avenger?? If so, it's the same engine.

the guys on here with turbo Avengers are I4 420a Avengers (same as eclipse engine).

but to answer your question.. you can turbo ANYTHING, it's just a matter of money, whether somebody makes a kit or not is irrelavent.

I know that the I4's are the same. But, I thought that there was a 3.0L V6 model that someone had turboed. Oh well, I'll just find the link to his site.

I just sat down with some guys today all with 3g's at the Eclipse meet that we had going and they were talking about it. The ones that are out for the V6s are like $4000-$5000. Not worth the money but there is a guy around here who does have one and is putting about 400 hp to the wheels but can only run 14s due to traction problems. HAHA.

You confused kids... emoji ...

Well, the 3G V6 motor is the same one used in the 3000GT minus the DOHC (its a SOHC), what a step further Mitsubishi! -LOL ...
(Cuz, both are 6G72 or 3, but I'm pretty sure 2)

Anyways, I believe the 3000GT kits can get adapted to fit the 3G Eclipse...

Anyways, it could also have a custom turbo...

What motor is used in the I-4? I thought it was something else besides the 4G63....
