shut up everyone, even if it sounds dumb to you, keep you comments to yourself.

but what was said before, if you have money then yes it can be done. but we are looking well over 4k plus for fabrication and other stuff like that.

think about axles, any cutting? mounts etc.....

it is definitly not worth it at all. why not invest in a 4g63 motor, its proven time after time that the engine can handle tons of power. i mean its an iron block to start things off. why not give you car the engine it wants to have, not a engine that it doesnt need.

k20a= 220 hp, 149 +/- tq
vs.
4g63 (turbo)=210 (95-00), 190 +/- tq (but have the options of putting more boost up, priceless)

it just doesnt = up. i love the 4g63 its a great engine, have had 2 eclipse, only problem i ever faced was my clutch fork broke, but thats it. and alternator problems, but thats not really the core engine related.

well anyways long write up, but good facts haha.

i dont think there is any point swapping a Honda motor into a mitsubushi eclipse.
1. everything will need custom work done / fabrication
2. it will cost you triple than if you would just swap is with gst/gsx motor and upgrade the turbo.
3. plus .... wouldn't u rather hear the hizzin of the blv instead of roaring v tec on ur eclipse?
