    Back to the original topic. Does it surprise you that a DSM beat you? Regardless of what the first Fast and Furious did for the DSM scene, they are and can be, very fast cars. Dollar per dollar, a modified DSM could easily rape a mild GTP.

    Not to mention depending on what type of Eclipse, it could have the same powerplant as an Evo. Look it up.

    Look it up...that if you spend that kind of money on a DSM...your going to need twice the money repairing it since they are one of THE MOST unreliable cars to mod.

    Unreliable, yes. But they can be fast. Hence, the point I was trying to make. The Evo is plagued by it's drivetrain when the cars make huge power. They do make big power, and they're capable of being fast cars. DSM's can't really be compared to most slower imports running around.

    So you can't compare a DSM to a EJ or a FD? right. OR...a Supra for that matter?

    Put your computer speakers by your feet and face them towards each other and tell me if you think it sounds so good its worth a prize.

    thats the average car SQ install.

    As far as the topic at hand here.

    Get into a RWD small block platform... THAT is cheap to go fast.
