    It looks like a possibility but i dont think that anyone on here has tried it. plus thats a lot of money when you can just go to a junk yard and get a second gen eclipse one...

    Iam 90% sure it will bolt up to the 7g intake manifold however it would be just as good as your stock TB if you haven't ported out your intake manifold to 70mm to match for the gains...

    You should look in other areas to improve first... usually people only start to tweak the tb and intake when there looking for a better power curve or a few extra hp on a built motor...

    If your looking to spend 200 in improvements, I would start with bolt ons like a nice full cai setup or custom exhaust...

    Although that money could also be spent in suspension, If you haven't modded that area already...

    you gonna do the same job with 1g eclipse 60mm TB. At the moment the stock one is not really a restriction to your airflow, although you will see minimal gain with larger TB


    Or you can spend some money on diamante Tb and sent it for rebuild and porting to 65mm here:

    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.
