What kind of performance parts. Just a FYI, your car is pretty much a 3g Eclipse (00-05)

Well I am looking for a good catback system, cold air intake, and possibly installing a turbo in my car.
Are you saying most parts for a 00-05 eclipse will work with my car?

Yep that's what I'm saying. All my parts I ordered from an eclipse spoiler, suspension, intake, rims, rotors. The one thing that will be a problem is the exhaust, if your order one from an Eclipse you'll need a 12" extension because our cars are longer. I don't think they make turbo kits for out cars anymore, you'll have to get it custom made. I do know that RIPP sells a supercharder set up still if your interested in that.

I was told that with a turbocharger you would need to get the engine built up for it, or you run the risk of blowing the engine. Is this true?
If I was to go with a supercharger instead, would I still need to build up the engine for it?

It all depends how good your tune is. I know of a guy pushing a little over 300 fwhp with stock internals, because his tune is right on, pushing low boost I believe 5-7 psi. You might want to think of it this way to, with aturbo your blowing air into your motor with a more powerful shot, while the SC whines up and blowes are in more efficiently.

try these. Depends how low you want to go. You can go with coilovers, our shocks struts springs. Eibacj sportliones will give you a 2' drop the Eibach pro-kit will give you around 1.5"
