You know the ammount of crap you guys keep talking about "sell That POS and buy a GST and get out of HS" is completely stupid and is what started making the mitsu tech page crap before. If you have no knowledge of the 420A motor and what it can or cant do, dont post crap up. This is a Tech page after all.

Anyway to answer your question superkaioken, swapping the 420A motor with a 4G63 is possible but it takes a lot of effort and patience. Something that I would not recommend doing unless you have a lot of time and want a headache. Since you have an RS you can rebuild the motor (correctly!!) and boost it (Correctly!!). Its not easy and does take a little researching and know how but that is your other option and you might be pleasantly surprised at what it can do. Let us know if you need any help.

 

no

next question

 

Of course it is,he has a keyboard and lots of time,it can be whatever he wants j/k

 

true story

 

www.hahnracecraft.com makes a nice easy bolt on turbo kit for your car. You can run Stage 1 and 2 on stock internals but if you want to boost more, and you will, a proper rebuild will allow you to run upwards of 18 psi before the turbo starts to blow hot air. You can get a 20G and run crazy boost but the powerband 4500 rpm and up. You can get a lot of power out of the car, just depends on the depth of your wallet.

 

I asked the same question when I had my 95 body/ 97 engine eclipse rs. Long story short, just sell it, and buy a gst. you have to be patient tho. Its what I ended up doing

 

sell and buy EVO!

 

Hope you're ready to dish out a shit load of cash, and deal with a lot of down time. Chances are since you're asking this you probably dont know how to build up the motor that you have or you dont want to fuck with it, which is why I would recommend getting the GST not because of the 420a but just for the simple fact that it would probably be less of a headache in the end.
