Throttle body, Intake Plenum, and Manifold

[MrLandreth]

Start here: Tearstone Performance - 2006 Eclipse Factory Service Manual

That's the FSM for our cars. You can find ANYTHING and EVERYTHING about the stock vehicle in there. As far as moving from N/A to F/I then you should check out the F/I and Nitrous section on the site. The only thing I know about the intake manifold is that it's design looks funky as hell and the top section is a "surge tank". Other than that I don't really know much, but everyone that has gone the forced induction way has the stock manifold still on there.

Hell, talk to JoeyB, I think he's got the most money wrapped up in his F/I application...
