Sadly, adding a turbo to a 3g eclipse won't make it less gay.

No, you'll want both your cylinder banks feeding the turbo. You can keep the stock manifolds and re-route the pipes to the turbine, or make custom manifolds.

so you want to use a four cylinder ex manifold on your six cylinder car? if so you sir are retarded. even if four and three were the same number what makes you think the flange will be anywhere near close to even fitting?nope it has never been done you will be the first person in ten years tp ever think of turboing that body style v6 eclipse
