Default Conquest and Starion ????

Going to my puppy class I saw a turboed Conquest on Sheldon. When I was a kid I thought that car was the coolest looking. But if I had to get a FI 4 cycl I would get either of the two. My question is

What size motors did they have?
What was the stock hp(turbo version)?
Weren't they RWD?
What years were they made?

Thanks. -Mark

Those cars scream for a 4g63 swap. Hell they practically cant be fast without one

With such a big 4 cycle you would think with a turbo the must of been decently fast. That sucks. Would've of been cool to own one. Would they be quick if you up the boost on the stock turbo?

I know someone who just gave his away to the dump. Everything was ready for the 4g63 conversion all you needed was a motor. Shame to see it go, for free none the less.

they can be. they where mitsubishi's sports car back in the 80's. You would just have alot of work ahead of you just like any dsm.(I owned a dsm in the past Ill never buy one again.)
