Best Answer

The same way you'd turbocharge any other vehicle - you can cobble together parts and do a backyard turbo kit, or you can spend approximately $3k for a turbo kit by Hahn Racecraft or Star. The HRC kit is customizable, so options exist for different turbos (standard was a 16G) and intercooling, and will take approximately 10 hours to install. Star made (makes?) a kit which utilized a bigger turbo at the cost of more lag - unfortunately the kit was not well documented and customer support was sporadic at best.

The price of used vehicles makes purchasing a GS-T/GSX/TSi/TSi-AWD a viable alternative, although insurance costs will be higher.

How do you know if 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse is turbo or non turbo?

look at the engine, is there a snail shell looking thing attached to the front of the engine...if so then u got one. ------ If your Eclipse is a GS or RS it did not come from the factory with a turbo. the engine should be on the passenger side of the car. That engine is a 420a. If you have an Eclipse GSX or GS-T then you have a turbo charged engine. the engine will be on the drivers side of the car. this is the 4g63 engine. it is possible to have a 420a with a turbo, but someone will have had to put it on themselves, and you would probably know that when you bought it.
