if the car is tuned correctly, then it won't backfire. backfiring is usually caused by the engine running rich.

the turbo kit will cost you roughly $5000. an engine build can run you anywhere from $2000 to $10000 depending on the amount of HP you are shooting for.

Yea, I bought a crappy intake off ebay. It didn't even fit. The rubber couplers didn't even fit on the intake tube that was provided.

In the end I bought a K&N Intake for a lot more, but it was a quality piece of work.

Also, I don't know if it's just the picture, but the air filter looks pretty small. You may not be seeing any extra gains in power because the air filter isn't able to draw enough air in.

Just me two cents.

AEM, INJEN, or K&N. Those are the top 3 manufacturers.

it won't cause problems unless you decide to go snorkling with your eclipse. other than that, there are no possible problems.
