I have a 2000 Eclipse GT with the V6 3.0L automatic with the kick over.I wanted to put some new headers and a new exhaust system on my car. I was wondering what would be the best parts for me, and if there are any other bolt ons to add some horsepower. THANKS for the infoAlso if I can get your email to ask you bout someother stuff id like to do
that car is a 07, it still should have a warranty on it. dont fool with it, or you could void the warranty. take it back to where you bought it and let them worry about it, it will be payed for.
let the car roll a little without any gas if it shakes then you probably have to get the tires balanced(which should have een done when the tires were put on)and if it doesnt then try changing the brake pads
relies upon on whether or no longer to procure a fart cannon or no longer. if to procure a fart cannon it somewhat is greater advantageous than 2.5 in diameter you in all probability lost backpressure and in all probability lost some backpressure; no longer lots (with out changing the cat) yet sufficient to lose low end horsepower to a pair extent (in line with possibility 2hp). chilly air intake does no longer something because of the fact maximum production facility intakes are already chilly air intakes (pull air from the wheel wells), if it somewhat is a short ram or the intake pulls in air it somewhat is warmer than the air the production facility one pulled in, you will additionally lose horsepower (throughout the means band). you could nicely be pulling greater air yet whilst that's warmer the upward thrust in airflow won't somewhat count. If that's chillier and the flow is bigger you will get a modest bump up good (2-3 horsepower over 4-5k rpm). i recognize that seems contradictory means-band sensible in spite of the shown fact that it somewhat is what it somewhat is. it somewhat is why you could desire to recognize what you're doing till now you do it.
First off you NEVER put a straight through test pipe on a non-turbo car. You need reversion in your exhaust, second by taking out your A/C all you are going to do is make your car hotter, not faster. It has been proven time and time again that removing the A/C only nets between 1-3 hp at the wheels. If you are going to drive the car alot, LEAVE IT IN. Now as for the reversion thing I'll try to explain it simple. When the exhaust gases leave the head(s) its getting pushed out the exhaust, then it hits the catalytic converter which helps filter it before exiting, while it is being filtered it goes through a few chambers. Now all the while the piston goes up and down in the cylinder bore and the valves are opening and closing, while the air is trapped and being expelled the next cycle of gases are being discharged, now what happens is in a car with a open testpipe that is not turbocharged is the gases actually get sucked BACK into the combustion chamber due to the air that is kind of stuck in limbo trying to escape. Keep in mind that your engine is rotating extremely fast so all this is going on in just fractions of seconds. It creates kind of a log jam effect on gases and can decrease how effecient the combustion process is.
