Dude 2 days ago I raced a 2006 Mitsu. Eclipse. Iv'e heard this thing has around 250HP? So we raced from a rolling start in 1st gear and started to pull him right from the start. By 3rd gear I was ahead of him by at least 3 car lengths...first I thought that it was a 4 cyl. but then he came up to me side-by-side and told me the car was a V6! He told me the car was relativeley stock. He had only an intake.
they're about 300+ horses. the motor they have is 200 something and there is an electirc motor in the back which works when at high rpms, around 110 horses i think, not sure. so it's kinda like a twin enigine car.

You're thinking of the Concept-E, the 470hp concept eclipse. The current Eclipse just has a 263hp 3.8L V6.
Considering that it's pretty slow, with a 6.8 second 0-60 and a quarter mile time of 14.9 seconds.
Header, exhaust, CAI, port polished intake manifold, 1.8 cam, Apex SAFC, CenterForce dual friction clutch. Iv'e raced a few stock V6 Tibs. and have not lost to one...remember stock V6's. Was going to race one with I/H/E but the guy never showed up... ...?
ive seen a few if the new v6 eclipse run, not too impressive consittering then horsepower numbers. its just too heavy. i think they took some notes from ford and the shelby on how to mess up a car by making it too heavy. but if u beat one in ur tib more power to ya man, thats pretty sweet.
Yeah, I was really stoked! The thing is that I new that these cars had pretty good HP numbers...The guy even asked me if my car was V6?! I told him that there's no V6 in the RD generations...hehe Pretty funny. I guess since my car beat his he was thinking that only another V6 could of win.
