just read ppl sayin its not really the same car... motor trans suspension everything is like 99% the same from the factory the stratus even has mitsu usa stickers on the firewall n hood the stratus is just like 6 inches longer n its a coupe instead of a hatch n we both had a AEM cai on the cars the only difference is my strat has suspension done n stock the stratus should do 15.9 n the eclipse does 15.8 or.7 according to car an driver n motor trend

Well i plan on running a 75 shot with headers, and exhaust so well see where that puts me, my buddys 02 V6 stang is almost identical running time to me without spray, and with spray hes running mid 13's so i should be somewheres around there.

I don't know for sure, I really don't have a lot of experience with racing these cars. Could be with all the mods you listed as doing, how big of a shot were you going to run?

Get that stuff fixed! Bad O2's will kill your car from running lean. My roommate had the same problem on his 01 GT and it ended up really ugly. If I remember right you should run around mid to low 15s if you were running tip-top. I would say don't add the juice until you have your other things sorted out, or you might be out a head gasket or a set of rings.

The stratus had the 6G72 in the early 2000's. Besides that, I'm surprised how badly the eclipse did. Anyone have some weight #'s?

Um motor wise, yes. Both have a 3.0 V6 Mitsu motor.
