Good Points

I own a 99 GST and I love my car. I never would have thought it, but this car goes man. It hasn't given me any problems at all. I couldn't believe it! I've got a greedy blow off valve, indent intake with k&n filter, apex cat-back exhaust, auto-tech boost controller, and some interior mods to it also. I'm pushing about 225 hp and about 220 lbs of torque. That's sitting at the stock psi. This is an awesome ride and I €™m yet to run into a 4 cylinder that can keep up!! No doubt, I love this car, best one I €™ve ever own.


Bad Points

I've heard that if you don't keep up the maintenance with this car it will give you problems. I haven't had the problem and hopefully I won't. Another thing is people say is that the 7- bolt is a weak motor, but only if you boost it. I'd say around 13 or 14 is safe. Anything more...your asking to shoot a rod. Keep it reasonable and you can run the wheels off of it!


General Comments

Overall, the showroom price for the Mitsubishi Eclipse is a bit much, but overall I think the price is well worth the car. Another thing is that the 95-99 eclipse is a great car and the motor does just fine. Like any other car, keep with with the maintenance and keep the boost reasonable, it's a car the you will love! Its fast, easy to get more power out of and most of all, it's a really fun car to drive. Trust no stock 4 cylinder will match it.
