The mods are very solid, perhaps the injectors size are in the short end for such turbo but nothing to worry too much.

My only concern is the traction and the weather, you must have a lot of issues whenever you hit full boost on your FWD.

Mitsubishi made a one time in life forever regretable and perennial mistake to not offer the AWD on their convertible Spyder. One more time Mitsubishi showed us how brilliant they can make cars but how poor their sales strategy is.

The Eclipse Sypder was and always has been the car that you fall inlove with, the car you dream to have when you were younger.

Nice car by the way!Take it to the dyno.

I am using DSM link on my GSX, it is neat but it has a huge problem, it wouldn't hold the memory in case of battery voltage drop. If you loose contact on the battery terminals or if you have to swapp the battery then you will loose the tune unless you save it.

I would imagine that DSM link company would be more competent and attempt to add a feature that would permit you to not lose the memory after the battery is disconnected.

Yeah dsmlink has a few drawbacks but over all I'm very satisfied with it. Just for troubleshooting is worth the $$$ and the support that comes with it. Now if i only knew how to tune...wonder if theres a book tuning for dummies out there.
