Re: DSM GUYS HELP ME OUT?!?
well first off explain the difference between this cyclone and this 4g63t you speak of.
i always thought they were the same engine. just one by name and one by code?

I love how the DSM's engine is easy to make power (makes up for it's heavy @$$ )

its not much of a pain...its just spending the money...i wana keep that car it was my first dsm...if ya get what i mean...and i like it cause it has no power except for power steering...i mean ive found the wiring harness for a 2.0 car and the ecu for cheap from a dsmjunkyard up north....i mean if i could find a cheap turbo car id concider doing another car...but i dunno...my goal is to have a turbo reliable eclipse..with alot of power

Re: DSM GUYS HELP ME OUT?!?
Yeah the cyclone intake manifold is a secondary butterfly system to maintain low end and produce good top end, just like in my SVT contour. Definitely not worth the money or time to do it on a 4g63. Instead of spending the money on the cyclone save it for a bigger turbo or anything other than a damn intake manifold. The 1g 4g63t intake manifold flows great for stock. Only way I'd see upgrading is if you were running over 450hp.
