Yup, a block off plate and plugs for the hg nipples on the TB and the mid sized one that goes to the intake pipe. I might suggest a gasket for the blockoff plate too, I had a tiny leak from my blockoff plate and I used an old piece of tin to sub as a gasket...it's still working btw. Even an old or new, lol, soda can will work (assuming you do know that I mean to cut it to shape).
Might I suggest FFWD Connection.

They have a copper plate for just this reason
The copper alloy will embed with the mating surfaces and insure a tight seal...better than a stainless or aluminum plate.
I have an aluminum one btw , hence my suggestion.

Hey VR4GARY, bud660r has an Eclipse...I'm just saying
Although this middle one looks like ours.

Yup, any will work, just make sure that it's flat and you're good to go.

..that and a cleaner manifold+ and less gas milage (differs from car to car). I've got a nice big opening where my battery and EGR used to be
