Werd...AEM V2 on my Si FTMFW!!!!

I have DC sports headers stock exhaust, and a muffler that's slightly bigger than stock (no not a trash can muffler...I wouldn't be caught dead in a car with a bumble bee trash can muffler!

Yeah, I don't really like the way that many soft tops look.

I'm not exactly sure what that jumble means, but I am guessing you're saying you don't like the 3rd gen. and that your Volvo is faster than my car? I guess you didn't read the other posts where I said I actually prefer the 2nd gen GSX, but couldn't find one when I was car shopping. What really sucked though was a friend of a friend sold theirs like 2 months after I bought this car.

As for your Volvo, if it isn't one of the 06/07's then it's automatically an ugly car.

lol, Mitsubishi's are DSM (Diamond Star Motors)

They're a Chrysler/Dodge counterpart, not GM

See the generation of Eclipses before Archon's, they were under Eagle as the Talon.

The Mitsubishi 3000GT, its counterpart is the Dodge Stealth.

Yep yep....I've never been a HUGE fan of eclipses though, but the 97 model is my fav year. There are a lot of Talons that have been converted into eclipses down here...

That was the year they put that awesome front end on and rearranged the tail too isn't it?

if im not mistaken, the body style was the same from 1995 on up until 1999 or 2000, wasnt it, I know there is hardly any difference at all if any!!!

I think the rear was the same maybe a few minor changes but the front changed.

1995

1999

2000 is the major body style change to the car in the previous pics.

Yeah, they opened the front end up a little more and made it look "meaner". The back end got the lights that were next to the liscence plate moved further to the side and rounded out, and they also put a little curve thing in the center. Next time you're out and see one, you'll be able to tell the difference right away.

It's the 3.0 V6. Which one do you have?

[sweetvette]

I have a 1995 Montero, it's a pretty sweet 4wheeler, but the engine could use a little more punch. its got the same as you 3.0 v6

if it is the same exact motor, then you may be able to use some performance parts that are used on an eclipse for your montero!!!

I'm sure there's a tuner shop out there that will custom make you some parts....you can get parts for ANY car...it may jus cost an arm and a couple of legs!

for a start, ebay.com has a few Weapon R intakes for your vehicle and Injen makes an intake for the newer versions of it, so if you search the net a little more, you may be able to find an Injen intake for your specific vehicle. It's not much, but it sure is a decent start, and like civic_guy said, you could track someone down that could make you custom parts, but it WILL put a huge hole in your wallet!!!

well i meant same size, its probably a lot different, just lookin at the pic of his engine i can tell that the air intakes are in different spots
i was thinkin that montero and dodge durango could be similar since dodge and mitsubishi are incahoots like that, but i have to look into it more

[DRFTKO]

well when I was talking about intakes, I meant the one for your Montero and not an eclipse, but of course the intakes are going to be in different places even if the engines are the same!!!

[sweetvette]

that is true...on injen's website i found universal suv exhaust in 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch wich sounds entising, and i'll look into the weapon r intakes
but i'm also thinkin more offroad type upgrades, like some cheap 15s or 16s (the stockers aren't so pretty), all terrain tires, some offroad lights, stuff like that

EDIT: Weapon r intake def. goin on birthday wishlist, and lambo doors too!!
ahaha lol
