I'm trying to decide whether to upgrade my 1998 Eclipse GS to a turbo. I'm not asking which turbo to get, but rather should I even get a turbo.

-Is it worth it for it's price?
-Is there daily drivability/reliability probs?
-How's the longetivity of the engine effected?

Thanks for your help.

-Is it worth it for it's price?
HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Is there daily drivability/reliability probs?
NO


-How's the longetivity of the engine effected?

It matters how you maintain it. Good maintenance= long engine life

Do you like having the ability to kick the shit outta 90% of the cars you run into? Then yes it's worth it! Once you go turbo then there's no goin back. It's a whole new ball game.

aahahaha, steve got busted...

Yes, it is very much worth it. The turbo kit i bought had to be the best investment i've ever made. the stupid, shit eating grin it puts on my face every thime i dip into the throttle has paid for it many, many times over.

here's the best turbo-tip i can give you: Buy HRC

If you dont have the money, BORROW IT, you wont regret it! The difference will be night and day, you'll love it! If you don't, then your that small percentage of the population thats crazy! I think all cars should be force-fed.
