Now im trying to find a fast car under about 8 grand. I was thinking of an eclipse (one of many) mostly because they are cheap, fast, and easy to mod. Now I was wondering what would be faster 0-60. A 99 GSX or a 99 GS with a super charger. I can get both for about the same price. Another thing is whats the difrence between the RS and the GS. Alls i can find out right now is the price (the RS being aobut $500-$000 cheaper. Finally would the GS super charged be able to beat a 99 mustang GT on the 1/4 mile.

The Rs And The Gs Have The Same Engine, The Gst And Gsx Have A Different Set Up But The Same Dodge Neon Engine Just TurboCharged. A Supercharged GS And A Gsx, Hard Choice, Is The Gsx Stock? Does The Gs Have Anything Else Done To It. Gsx Have AWD Compared To Just FWD With The Gs. The Gsx Has Leather And All The Goodies, Another Plus. Not To Mention If You Plan On Keeping The Gs For A While That SuperCharger Has To Be Oiled Regularly, Its High Maintenance. And Finally If Its Just Got A SuperCharger, Im Pretty Sure A Gt Will Blow It Away, Not Blow It Away But Beat It. But Ne Post The Rest Of What Each Car Has Done To It And Ill Post My Choice Back. But Now Its Just Too Hard To Choose W/O Knowing.

Yes the GSX is stock. Also the GSX has the Mustang on the 1/4 mile so if the GS supercharged can beat a GSX it can beat the GT. The only reason im asking this is because i know superchargers get better preformance than turbo chargers....usually. But will the AWD in the GSX still be able to take the supercharged GS down? In my opinion i would think it would but i wanted to know what other people thought.

Ok, you guys are really misinformed.
First, the GST/GSX does not have "the same Dodge Neon engine just turbocharged". It's a Mitsubishi engine called the 4g63, maybe you've heard of it. :loco:
Second, take the GSX over a modded GS anyday. The GSX is made to take 400 hp on stock internals, whereas the GS can only handle about 220-230 before needing to start thinking about replacing things. Plus, the GSX is set up to run boost already...it is DESIGNED to run that way. A lot more involved in getting the GS to that point.
