I would say, DEFINETLY put a turbo on it. That will be spendy though. You will have to reinforce the crank among some other things depending on how much boost you want to run. Also, do not get the stock turbo they put on the Eclipse, piece of crap!!! Get a garret turbo or something of the sorts. You will also have to change the entire exhaust from the engine back, and don't forget to get an intercooler, a nice big one. To cool all that compressed air.

I would also suggest the tranny swap. Get a five speed transaxle in there. That automatic has no need being in a turbocharged car. I will also look up to find some good sites for you.
