A buddy and I are converting the jeep TBs for use with our cars. They are 60mm in size compared to the stock 52-53mm size. Previously I had run a best of 15.7X and with the addition of the jeep TB, and putting the 14's up front my time dropped down to a 15.46. I think the 14's helped a lot, but the best performance gains that you'll notice with the TB will just be around town during normal driving.

Here is some info on our setup

60mm Jeep throttle body and 95-99 eclipse upper intake
manifold modified (port matched to fit new Jeep throttle body diameter and AIS air inlet blocked) to fit a 2nd generation non-turbo eclipse. Comes ready to install with upper manifold gasket, EGR tube gasket, purge solenoid to throttle body vacuum hose adapter, modified upper manifold and jeep throttle body pre-assembled.
Prices:
1)If you provide all of the parts, excluding gaskets, (basically the stock upper manifold, TB and Jeep TB): $100
2) If you provide us with your stock upper manifold and TB, but we have to provide the Jeep TB the cost will be $175
3) If we have to provide all the parts the cost will be $275 (that includes $100 core charge). Once we get your stock parts we will refund you the 100 bucks. READ: Your stock pieces must be in useable condition, if they are not you will have to pay for return shipping and we will keep the core charge.
Turn around time is expected to be about 2 weeks. It may go faster than that, but it should not be any longer than that. Please email all of your requests to tdaug@yahoo.com or post it and any questions you may have here. We will accept paypal, but if you use a credit card expect to be charged for the extra charge we will incur. We will also accept money orders, email me and I will send you my address.
I think that is about it, once again if you have any questions let me know.

Well the turbo kit will not be a problem. I believe he will accept paypal, so you could pay with a cc through paypal.

Yeah, the only problem is going to be for the looser in the other lane. You should e-mail Toney directly - he'll hook you up.

Ive been quite busy this weekend but emailing me is the fastest way to get a response. As far as the TB fitting the stock intake pipe, that is a NO, the diameter of the jeep TB is too large to fit the stock pipe, an aftermarket intake is a must.
