Anyone know how you could duplicate the instant nature of Google Instant? I'm trying to create a similar functionality with hand carved results (basically a huge if statement) on a website.

Some more clarification:

If a user were to type 'phone' in a search bar, contact information would instantly appear below.

more clarification: I don't really want predictive results, just simply returning results based on keyword instantly below the input bar.

So you want to move the search box on the first keystroke in a box then use ajax to retrieve results? Sounds like the bulk of what you're asking to do...

Nothing to do with business, and no not move the search box...just return the results below. It's not for commercial 'search', just information retrieval.

then you just want to look at ajax results retrieval... You might start here http://api.jquery.com/category/ajax/
