but there are companies that make superchargers… and its perceivable that one of these “superchargers” could be put onto an Eclipse as well, correct? And one could consider such an act “modding” if im correct in my understanding of the word…

ahhhh, gotcha. Seems to me the 6G72 responded to mods well, and it was just the crappy tranny and boat of a car that it was in that made the platform unattractive to prospective tuners… :dunno:

i’ve been unimpressed with mitsubishi’s performance of anything other than their i-4s which they decided they didn’t want anymore. the v6 eclipses from 00 on were a joke and people resorted to big turbos on the basemodel 2.4s. its getting to be more and more of a car my grandma would drive than something i’d wanna modify for racing

cant really argue with that. The downfall of the Eclipse from its roots is really saddening.

Bring back the 2nd gen for god’s sake. I still think it’s one of the nicest looking non-exotic cars ever made. At least the new one looks slightly better than the 3G.
