so what is the main differents with the 2g head and the gs head
Well heres a quick update, I got an e-mail back from that budsmachine shop and they said the adapter only worked for about 2 months and then they got rid of it...
They had trouble with timing advancing through out the rpm range and the ecu didn't deal well with the stage 1 crower cams and injectors.... All in all they went with an eclipse harness-ecu-etc and the car rides great...
Well so much for that idea....
so what is the main differents with the 2g head and the gs head
NOw I am gonna open a can of worms with this one...but everyone is saying use the GS ECU or the 2G SpyderGS....now wasnt the 2G spyder GS the exact same SOHC that is in the Galant now!? What would be the point here? The ECU and ignition would be the same no? I ask and say because I know a guy with the 2G spyder and he was amazed that we had the same engine.
"Why fart and waste it when you can burp and taste it!"
The 2g Eclipse Spyder uses a coil Pack instead of a distributor so when a 2gspyder goes DOHC they don't need to worry so much about this area.
The DOHC swap has been accomplished easier then before by using a 2g dohc, CAS/Coil pack setup from a 2gspyder and 2g turbo ecu... There are a few options and a tutorial that goes into detail about this in the tutorial 7g section...

The 2G Spyder GS is already setup to run coil packs. You will be missing the fuel trims of the GST/GSX though.

with the distributor you can only run limited boost. the boost blows the spark out. coil packs have much more energy.
2G spyder GS has the same motor but as stated the diffrent CAS. this alows us to stay SOHC, run more boost, and use the 2G ecu to run everything (turbo eclipse ecu)

Is that a new Mirage I remember yours been white over at mirage performance.
Definitely give the details, I'm curious as to what modifications were needed. Hopefully this will get more members here to do the swap.

I have yet to see one member do the swap.
