Essentially an Eclipse GSX in a Galant sedan body, most Galant tuners in America normally aspire their build towards the turbocharged powerplant. Not this project though.
The vehicle was originally picked up in 2004 from family friends and had only 32,000 miles on the odometer. Broderick took it straight to the dyno the day after taking delivery and ownership to get some baseline figures. Making 156whp and 164wtq, it felt fairly powerful for the then automatic 3.0L. But it wasn’t enough, as Broderick wanted to go beyond the 200whp mark naturally aspirated. So in went a 3.5L built motor, making it the only 3.5L swapped Galant in the country. Battling up against the turbocharged cars, this Galant holds its own now dropping 225whp and 235wtq while only weighing in at 2880lbs.
