Mitsubishi Eclipse Engine Problem

Im planning to buy a turbo for my Automatic 02 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Can you tell me if thats a good idea and how effective it would be. Like how different is it hp wise and noise wise?

You can't just buy a turbo and put it into the vehicle. There are many other things to take into consideration and normally aspirated pistons would not be able to lost with turbo. Engine computer needs to be replaced/reprogrammed to cater for the difference in power.

Power increase would depend on the turbo and many other factors.
