Legit or not?
There's a guy who claims his 97 Eclipse GS-T has 296 HP at the wheel @ 5400 rpm and 286 lb torque @ 4500 rpm. He claims he ran 1/4 mile: 12.23 at 109.7 mph. Does this sound about right? He also says his car is smog legal in CA.

12.3 is pushing it for a GS-T with 296hp. If it was a gsx then it might be possible. I do believe it's possible for it to be smog legal. My friend has a 98 gsx that has about everything done to it. He has a big 16g turbo, gredd fmic, full exhaust, injectors, etc.... His car passed easly.
