I own a 1997 Eclipse GS non turbo 2.0.

I can't get T20 torque bits out without stripping them. My old map sensor is thicker an bolts longer. My new one is thinner where the new bolts would go would be shorter.

Where can i find the right bolts because it looks like i might have to cut the old one off, please help

If the torx strips then try grabbing the head with some vise grips and twisting them out that way. If that still doesn't work then just drill them out and retap to a larger size. They're probably M6 screws with aluminum threads so shouldn't be too hard to drill through. Worst case you have to replace the intake manifold which is easy.
