Sure. The problem is not suspension, it is support mods. If you are flowing more air to the engine, and the same amount of fuel, you will be running at a higher air to fuel percentage. This is called running lean, and it is bad. The MAF will add fuel up to the system's capacity, which will not be enough, so fuel mods have to be bought in conjunction with the turbo. Then, your MAF not works can not easily change the predetermined injector size, etc., and you must tune. what should you do?

Buy a premade kit by Hahn or Star I favor Hahn or part your kit together. 2gnt.com is your best resource.

Suspension is not an issue. Not for going in a straight line, at least, . Research tuning.

You could, but all that power on a 10+ year old suspension I presume? a lot of the older Elipses and Talons I see have engines modded out to about 400+ hp around here, and have little or no suspension work done. After a hard launch it is easy for many of the racers here cracked or bent frames, spring sagging, etc, so yeah. I mean, if you are Elclipse was garage kept for the past ten years.. go for it. If not, drive it like it's and save that 3k that you goed to use up on turbo, for a new car.

yes, you could get the turbo charger, but I wouldnt recommend it if your car had taken you to work and etc. reason being you could haveto use up on suspension and just to get a turbo charger for an old car is just wasting your money, I could just get a whole new car maybe a newer eclipse.

Sell it and get a GST or GSX. For the money you will use up on a turbo kit and installation, you may be able to sell your car and get another one. For models that old, the book value is not that far separately.
