Here are some more information for Eclipse Exhaust:

The Mitsubishi Eclipse was launched in 1989 in the North American automotive market. It was one of the three cars, along with the Eagle Talon and the Plymouth Laser, produced by Mitsubishi Motors. The Eclipse was manufactured by Diamond Star Motors (DSM) in Illinois. It had a front wheel drive, and was a 3-Door hatchback with a 1.8 liter inline four cylinder engine. The main feature of the Eclipse was its sporty and aggressive look. The Eclipse has gone through numerous performance shifts and body changes for more than two decades and is now widely available in North America, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, China, and South Korea.

The 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse came in three variants, the RS, GS and GT. The RS and GS came has a standard new 2.4 liter inline four cylinder engine, rated at 154 bhp. The GT sported a 3.0 liter V6 engine, rated at 205 bhp. In 2001, the Eclipse underwent a facelift and emerged as the Spyder convertible, available in the GS and GT variants, with the same engines as the hardtop coupe. The 2001 RS and GS sported a 2.4 I4 154 bhp with 5500 rpm and 163 lb-ft with 4000 rpm performance. The GT variant sported a 3.0 V6 205 bhp with 5500 rpm and a 205 lb-ft with 4500 rpm performance.

Mitsubishi Eclipse Performance Parts: Modifications

With proper modifications, you can expect to generate anywhere between 300-600 hp out of a Mitsubishi Eclipse. Racers strive for maximum power out of the car and often use extreme engineering to achieve more than 800 hp. Turbo chargers are used frequently to up the ante of the vehicle by making strategic modifications in:

* Exhaust systems

* Intakes

* Clutch

* Fuel system

* Wheels

* Suspension

Mitsubishi Eclipse Performance Parts: Troubleshooting Exhaust Systems

The Eclipse is a four-seater sports coupe and because of its appeal, the manufacturers have always included an exhaust system that is easy to dismantle and troubleshoot. Here is what you can do for basic troubleshooting:

* Look for any fuel leaks or air in the pipe that connects to the turbocharger

* Check the color of the fumes from the tailpipe. If the color is white, there is coolant in the cylinder. If the color is blue, there is oil in the cylinder

* Examine the tailpipe for any rust or corrosion

* Check for heat damage to the spark plugs, cylinder head and ignition cables of the Eclipse

* Check for oil leakage on the heat shield around the engine

Eclipse Emissions Testing Procedures And Ecu Replacement

Although an Eclipse ecu replacement is not an easy job, we included information on vehicle emissions testing for the ecu to help you better understand the testing procedure and what the computer test results mean. Vehicle emissions testing requires an expensive piece of equipment called an infrared exhaust analyzer. Some analyzers measure only two gases, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide (HC and CO), while others measure three, HC, CO, and CO2 (carbon dioxide), or four, HC, CO, CO2, and O2 (oxygen) gases. Carbon dioxide and oxygen are not pollutants, but their level in the exhaust gases can be used for diagnostic purposes  on catalytic converter equipped Eclipse vehicles. Exhaust analyzers cannot read oxides of nitrogen (NOx) levels. Most vehicle emissions checks begin with an underhood visual inspection to see whether any emission control devices have been disconnected or are missing. The inspector may also check the Eclipse gas tank filler neck to see if the unleaded fuel restricter has been punched out so regular leaded gasoline can be used.

The second part of the test involves inserting an exhaust analyzer probe into the vehicle's tailpipe and checking emissions at idle. Some tests also include running the Eclipse engine at  higher speeds, but since pollution levels are greatest at idle, an idle check will usually catch any problems. Each state or metropolitan area is free to set their own ecu standards. The passfail point is usually set low enough so most Eclipse cars pass, but those emitting excessive pollution won't. The standards are determined by the model year vehicle, with standards for older vehicles being more lenient than those for newer ones. If an ecu fails an Eclipse emissions check engine light will activate, it means it is putting out too much HC or CO, or that the inspector found something missing or inoperative during his visual inspection.

In some states, there's a cost waiver that says if repairs bring a vehicle into compliance the law will exceed a certain dollar amount, then the Eclipse will be passed anyway. This is to avoid an undue financial hardship on those who can't afford to keep their vehicles ecu n good repair. Other states have no such waiver. And even in those states that do have a waiver, there is no waiver allowed for eclipse cars that have been deliberately tampered with. In other words, if the inspector finds that you've replaced the catalytic converter with a piece of exhaust pipe or disconnected any ecu control device, the vehicle must be restored to its original condition before it will be passed. Any missing or intentionally disconnected ecu emission control systems must be replaced regardless of cost. Since the specifics of vehicle emissions testing vary considerably from one area to another, we suggest you contact your state department of transportation or environmental control for details. Even if you live in an area where no periodic emissions checks are required, having a normal engine ecu your eclipse ecu checked at a local garage or dealership as part of a tune-up or diagnostic checkup can tell you a lot about your eclipse ecm  health. Or, if your Eclipse fails a state required emissions check, knowing the causes of high HC and CO emissions can help you determine the repairs needed. High HC emissions often indicate an ignition problem such as a misfiring or fouled spark plug, a cracked distributor cap, or bad plug wire. Anything that interferes with good ignition will permit unburned fuel to pass through the eclipse ecu and into the exhaust.

Badly worn piston rings and  valve guides that allow your engine ecu to burn oil will also cause high HC readings. Carburetor flooding.  or an excessively rich fuel mixture likewise can contribute to high HC levels. Loss of compression due to a leaky valve or blown head gasket can pass unburned fuel into the exhaust, too. Carbon monoxide indicates incomplete combustion resulting from too much fuel and or not enough air. Things to check for here include a clogged air filter, sticking choke, misadjusted
carburetor, plugged or inoperative PCV system, or a problem in the air pump or air injection system. Overadvanced ignition ecu timing can also send eclipse co levels soaring.

I have a 1997 Eclipse gs and exhaust sounds really loud and barely any air is coming out of the exhaust?

So i just bought my eclipse about 3 weeks ago..and i never bothered about the exhaust because it sounded good loud..but i started to wonder why is it so loud for a stock exhaust. And also when i drive i sometimes hear whistling noise. Also there is barely any air coming out of the exhaust end..is this bad and what could be the problem?

You have a hole in your muffler.
