You're the only person that actually puts up amazing videos for the eclipses if you can show us how you put it all together that would be amazing. It would have been great if you put the parts list in a description to
I’m torn between getting a 350z or a GTS Spyder. I know either way I’m customizing I’m leaning towards a supercharger but after this video I might need to reconsider a turbo kit one of the 350z I’m looking at comes with a single turbo the previous owner did a lot of customizing already to the car but I feel like a single turbo just isn’t enough power 🤔
Even though I love my 3g. If I had to choose between a 350z and a 3g I would go with the 350z. Tons of aftermarket support no real need to do custom fab work. Now if you can do your own fabrication 3g all the way. It's just a lil more challenging
I have an 03 GT Spyder and I’ve been thinking about a 3.5 swap, 3.8 swap, or just a turbo on the 3.0, and I’ve pretty much decided to turbo the 3.0. Apparently I have a GTS engine, since I’ve heard the 03+ Spyder GT’s have the GTS engine. I haven’t done a compression check yet but I’m pretty sure my engine is pretty healthy. I’m definitely gonna at least upgrade the pistons since I wanna run high boost, but is there anything else on the engine you’d recommend upgrading? I’m looking to get around 400-500 HP out of my build. Would you think the setup described in your video could achieve that? I’m not new to working on cars but I’m kinda new to modifying and boosting cars.
I been doing some reading on club3g and asking some questions some say just turbo the gs it’s easier but I’m not worried about what’s easier i just wanna go for more power from gts turbo or gs turbo
good thing you didn't run E85. you need a special tune since it's supposed to run high octane. If you do want to run E85, I highly recommend you get it tuned for it or you'll have engine issues.
E85 wasn't popular when I first turbocharged my 3g. Now if I did go that route I wouldn't run the fuel set up that I had since it's really not efficient for the demands for e85. Plus on the tune side I could run more timing and make more power
I have upgraded my plug wires to high resident silcon plug wires.. also I run ngk irodium plugs on a gts engine and had no problems.. but anyways, really what I have been thinking about lately is putting a Garrett Turbo on one of my gt engine with the lower compression ratio, but what do you think about running an automatic transmission?
@@tcroc30 do automatic transmissions need to be upgraded and/or tuned? And will my shift points need to tuned? Can a stock transfer be able to handle the boost?
@@tcroc30 well I think that I actually have a very good engine and automatic transmission.. with some of the lowest miles that I have ever seen.. and a very good compression test done on the engine it's self.. I'm going to go ahead and get a transmission cooler and run it in conjunction with the factory radiator.. but was also informed that a good torque converter would be a great investment.. when I do research, I don't find really any information on the 3gclub sites about anyone ever doing it.. so as with anything, I am curious to learn but nerves to do it without proper education.. like I mentioned.. the car that I'm wanting to turbo.. is a very nice car in it's natural state...
I know this is old but i’m considering picking up an eclipse. I would want a sub 5 second 0-60 would I need to turbo? would that even be enough and could I do it for under $1k. Thanks
@@tcroc30 ahhh bet I been looking into power mods for it I haven’t gotten to find much for it you have any recommendations ik the gts cams which I have so I can swap them over
@@tcroc30 okay thanks man. What flange fits on to the stock manifolds? I’m planning to turbo my gts spyder Cali spec. But the hot side is my biggest problem right now. I live in Texas.
@@tcroc30how much psi are u holding in your gt and would it be better to turbo a gts or a 2.4l I have both but now I seen that a 2.4l is better now I’m not sure what to turbo anymore
@@biglj822009 hey man, not tryna be mean but you're asking pretty basic questions. so im assuming theres a lot you dont know about. going straight to turbo kitting while you seem to question what it even does, is a bad idea. start small bro, what matters first is having a platform to put down any kind of power. just worry about your suspension set up first. cuz even with a CAI and exhaust you're not going to gain much. so if you're really looking to turbo, dont waste time/money on small hp gain things
@@tcroc30 where can I find the manifold for the turbo ? Can't find em anywhere also whoud you make me a list of what I would all need I'm not good with memorizing stuff

I'm going to do another video about it very soon breaking down cost. I'll go into more detail with pics
Great vid I'm considering doing my 6g75 3.8l from the 4g eclipse. Got a lot of research to do
Cool vids man. I would've built a motor and spin that Garrett up pass 30 psi. I remember wanting to boost my 3G back in the day.
I've toyed with the idea of building another motor. Will see though
Trying to do the same, would like to see it connect the 2 manifolds while in the engine bay. Love ur vids, keep em coming.
I think I may have some pics
@tcroc30 would you be interested in building this again? If you were provided with parts and compensation for your time and mechanics?

I’m trynna fix up my 3g but what parts do I need, will I need a new engine ? I’m at 149xxx miles
Its awesome

That set up should work fine

Gs is easier
You should collab with Franky hes into racing too, new sub!
We've talked about it before. It's just hard to do since I'm on the east coast and hes on the west coast.
Well work something out though
Nice video..
Very good info.. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
Where did you purchase the GT30 71R Garret at? I've looked on line and there's a bunch and not cheep.
Got mine used from a evo owner. I just switched the turbine side to work with my kit

Need help on getting a boost map for my eclipse croc, get at me asap please, money is no issue !
Can’t you just drop a 6G72T off of a Mitsubishi 3000Gt in them? I’m pretty the motor mounts should line up?
Not exactly its a bigger motor and it does mount slightly different. Not a simple swap

Nothing wrong with autos just make sure you run a cooler
@@tcroc30 do automatic transmissions need to be upgraded and/or tuned? And will my shift points need to tuned? Can a stock transfer be able to handle the boost?
I think your trans will be OK for low boost but it wouldn't hurt to upgrade some parts if your going to tear into it

If you can find Alex brodsky build on the forum he's probably has the highest HP for a auto. He would be a good guy to talk to

Under 1k probably not. Go nitrous for a more cheaper and effective route
Would a evo ecu swap be a difficult thing to do in a 3g eclipse?
For a 4 cylinder no
Is there lag on yours
"and a stand alone fuel managment system, not a bad way to spend ten thousand dollars.." jk good video.
Lmao we meet again Chris 😂😂.. What you know about OG TCroc? Lol
😂😂😂
@@jordanprice9285 not much, I came across him looking for mod videos for the 3g. (Not that I can afford them at the moment) his car is sick!
@@chriscars3224 Dude that's awesome! Well welcome to the channel my friend.. You got a GT or GS? Same here as I'm in the exact same boat :P
I wish I documented this car more in the past but I still have all my old pics that I can use
how do you get bigmaps? I'm not able to find it
A developer named acamus made one for me. Not sure if he's still around though
Very good info...how much does it cost to do this set up cuz I'm really interested
Depends on if your buying used or new parts. I spent a lil over 2k while some guys spend over 6k
Not bad at all...if there is any way you can list what you would prefer I would appreciate it bro...by the way thanks for the info in advance
@@jaygalvan7247 ill make video on it
Already sounds good bro
What about the 3.5s I’m about swap the 3.0 out with an diamanté just don’t know the difference of the ls and engine
It's a taller motor and the internals are different
There’s three in my town two ls and one es ik there different just don’t know the right motor to get I want power
Same motor I think those trims for the factory options that come with the car
@@tcroc30 ahhh bet I been looking into power mods for it I haven’t gotten to find much for it you have any recommendations ik the gts cams which I have so I can swap them over
I own I v6 3g eclipse and I want it faster just for a daily driver I need you help what would you recommend I need exactly?
Whats your budget
@@tcroc30 I’ve got a 3GT eclipse with a $1500 limit
Prices of things have sorts jump in price so you might have to look Snr bargain with guys nowadays
Where can I get the piping built?
Any shop honestly. If they make custom exhaust and etc they should be able to make it
Any suggestions
What’s the pipe next to the headers and where’d you get it to connect stock headers to turbo?
It's just a y pipe connecting the manifolds followed by a down pipe
@@tcroc30 okay thanks man. What flange fits on to the stock manifolds? I’m planning to turbo my gts spyder Cali spec. But the hot side is my biggest problem right now. I live in Texas.
Just use the existing flanges for the manifold and just buy separate flanges for the turbos. If that makes sense
@@tcroc30 yeah I get it
I'll try and get some detailed photos or vids soon
Where did you buy the bumper
Amazon
could i pay you to build me a kit? money isn’t really an issue i just don’t want to put the time in
If I had the time I would. With me going back to school I barely have time for myself
Anyyy body recommend turbo kit for 6g72 motor
Custom or buy a used kit. Turbo kits are nonexistent for v6
U got that video on how to install ?
No but I can do one in the future
@@tcroc30 please please please can you
Can you send me a list of everything I need for the turbo
I'll work on a list. Theirs actually list on the 3g website
What is the website for it?
@@wrhoden6377 tearstone performance
@@tcroc30 thank you
Is it even worth boosting the v6 just to get 6 to 8 psi if u can boost the 2.4l and get 18 psi
Either or honestly just depends on how much money your willing to invest
@@tcroc30 understand able thank you because now I been reconsidering to get a 2.4l because of it
@@tcroc30how much psi are u holding in your gt and would it be better to turbo a gts or a 2.4l I have both but now I seen that a 2.4l is better now I’m not sure what to turbo anymore
How much hp does turbo generate for 3g eclipse v6 engine?
Depends on how much you decide to run. So it could be in between 300-600whp etc or more
@@tcroc30 so it depends on how much psi the turbo kit has?
Kinda. You set the psi through a controller. Also depends on the turbo as well. A lot of factors come into play
@@tcroc30 so you can put more horsepower for the eclipse GTS engines then swapping the engine.

Do you have links????
Unfortunately no
I'm about to get a turbo any suggestions?
I'm a big fan of Garrett turbos but I'm just biased lol. So collectively I see guys run holset Garrett and precision.
@@tcroc30 where can I find the manifold for the turbo ? Can't find em anywhere also whoud you make me a list of what I would all need I'm not good with memorizing stuff
Nobody actually makes manifold for our cars so you have to go custom or using your existing manifold and get the piping made
@@tcroc30 do you wanna sell me your old set up and thank you man helps a lot
Nah I'm fixing the piping and doing another set up with it
how much money ? in total?
A lil under 3k
Make a 4g gt turbo kit😩
Let me get my hands on a cheap 4g
Hey bro I need help
Help with what?
What is a good engine rebuilt kit
I have the same car and idk if I should get a new engine or rebuild
@@yvng_julivn3492 are we talking full rebuild like tearing down the heads and the block. Are you rebuilding back to stock specs
tcroc30 so I can add turbo so basically enough to withstand a turbo
:58
My friend upgraded his twin turbo on his 335i N54 into a single big turbo, I’m wondering if i could use his old twin turbo?
Possibly get the charts and specs for it and see if it's compatible
@@tcroc30 could I pay you to do the built?
Honestly with school and work I wouldn't have the time to do a build
