1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse - Power Pages

Text By Staff Reports

The downpipe is by far the easiest of all the products to install; five bolts and the O.E. unit can be removed. The Buschur unit bolts in the same fashion as the O.E. piece using all the factory bolt holes. The downpipe brought out the power hidden in the turbo. Power from 3300 rpm on up was discovered, along with a peak gain of 188.1 ponies and 210 lb-ft of torque. Approximately five to 15 ponies were realized in the mid range.


Conclusion
With just a few simple bolt-ons, the Eclipse was able to break into the 180-hp range. Since we're already more than 200 lb-ft of torque from the baseline, this vehicle is just a few more installs away from laying down more torque to the wheels than the factory rating at the flywheel.
