Does this sound right???

My friend has an 2004 eclipse GTS with full exhust/headers and intake. I believe he does have a factory LSD. My mods are in sig. From a dig a got a one length jump on him and kept him back there. I wasnt gaining and neither was he. From a 40 mph roll dead even all the way to 95 mph...ish. Does this sound good for my car or bad? I thought i would of pulled a little bit on him. Thanks guys, Micah

sounds good to me. I did about the same thing to new Golf VR6's in my s4 with less mods then your s5. Plus the eclipse is just ugly, so that is like -50 HP right there.

Yeah sounds about right. Those things do have v6's, but I hear the power gains from aftermarket parts isn't there. Those cars are not as fast as the old 4g63t eclipses.

Glad to see youre still enjoying the car. Even with my FD, I still miss that car sometimes, it was a blast to drive. Who cares is that eclipse is as fast/faster than you. A new turbodiesel truck will beat you too, theyre both still bricks and no fun to drive.
