First time i drove it was with my friend. I thought I'd be fast straight from idle. I thought 'Hmmm...seems normal, except for the whine and a lil quieter. What a waste'...then I gunned it. 'ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...yeaaahhhh. (WG opens)..Oh..sheeit WTF is that!' Didn't know how loud theWG really was. I was boosting like 8lbs on a Star Stage I with a GReddy BOV on a cold night. Going up hills was easy...the freeway was fun. Now it that I got these gauges, intercooler n stuff I don't even gun it as hard as I used to. I think my car's losing power..don't really know, maybe I'm just paranoid.

oh the turbo virgin days...yes after my install i was so hyped, 1st thing i notice is you rev a lot louder and faster. then i adjusted the wastegate spring and hopped in the car, when i stepped on it, i was like wow, and then 3.5k came HOLLLLLY SHIT!!!! i was like DAMN I LOVE TURBO!!! i then loved hearing the blow off valve, i was like, damn now i know what they're talking about....i was like psssft...pssft....psssft all over the place. i was cheesing all the way home, funny thing is i went home with no front bumper. so everyone was looking at my car all weird. it was such a good feeling, now i feel love my car even more being boosted to 13 psi daily, it's a little scary to do at times.

Not really right after I bought it, but a while down the road I sometimes wish I would of bought the bike I wanted (and still do ) I love the turbo but it is alot of dollars. It was just the comparison of the amount of money I had already saved and the little more I needed to get the bike at the time. I was thinking of just getting a custom leather interior, some multimedia and a custom install of my subs and amp, and then buy a bike. That way the car would of been nice and still peformed well (already had the usual i/e/h) and I would of had the bike for the weekends and speed.
Oh well though, now I'll just have a turbo'd Eclipse and a bike after this summer (hopefully)

After the turbo kit, I was not scared to be on the road anymore. Actually, I'd drive around town hoping to meet a Mustang or Honda's, with that "Wyatt grin."
