    what year eclipse and what motor?

    something is fishy, people don't race stock cars for the risk of a $100. unless they are so rich its pocket change and they don't care because 599s are suppose to be fast.

    I don't think he believes me that my car is modded and kinda fast and Idk the guy who told me said he has one also pushing 20 of boost but that's why I was like ok we will see, he might try hiding some of has mods or something or he just thinks a grand prix can't beat a eclipse

    LOL tell him to set it up, pre-race inspection with hoods up, handshake to confirm, best of 3 races wins, loser buys fuel.

    If you spy a turbo and mods walk away, if its NA you should be able to walk him from the start. Even the new ones, factory run a best flat 14 1/4. But with mods and turbos they get much MUCH faster.

    A boost controller will really let you know. You could always look for a MASSIVE intercooler.
