If you are serious about doing it and have the money, go for it. The easiest way would be to find one car in a wrecking yard to grab everything from.

I don't suppose the PCM is the same... You have to figure out how to make the PCM control those two extra cylinders and other stuff...

I really don't want to get rid of this car because it is a fun to drive compared to the eclipse because it can hold more passangers.
the eclipse is a 4 seater but for kids under 5 so I use the back seat as my trunk.

I am pretty sure you will have to change the trans,pcm,wiring harness and a mess of other stuff. It is not an easy trade. 4cylmys suggestion is the best solution for the swap.
