Eclipse GSX

My brother just installed a bunch of new performance mods on his GSX and we went for a drive. Unfortunitly it's now faster than my Camaro, in fact it's so fast we went through some quick turns which were followed by a stop sign and when we stopped there was smoke just pouring out of the front brakes. Needless to stay some 13" big brake kit is on it's way but until then he's having to take it easy.

He has yet to have a single problem come up. His boost gauge goes up to 20psi so that's what he set it at, he was pegging it all the way down but obviously didn't feel comfortable not knowing how much boost he was running.

there are at least 2 different engines, and one is junk the other I think is considered decent (the fuel pumps suck to change I know)

Crank walk was a big issue through the '97 model year. My oldest brother had a '91 GST back in the day and it died due to the poor engineering.
