    so the 6a13tt In Japan are the same as the Euro version? and wheres is a good spot to buy the F5M42 tranny? if u guys know the link.

    I also searched that F5M42 is also used in the 4g63 motor as well? correct me if im wrong, If thats the case, then i should be able to use the north american tranny for the 4g63 in to the 6a13tt with a few components so it may correspond to the 6a13tt engine. or is the theory totally off? lol


    - The Vee
    Did you do a swap from a regular galant to a 6a13tt? if so what did u do what did u need? You guys made me excited about all this now and im so close to putting in my credit card to buying the 6a13tt motor and accessories for the swap! . man aint nothing like a Mitsu i love there engineering friggin awsome! lol im acting like a teenager all over again HAhaha .

    - Mko

    euro 6a13 n/a is sohc, the 6a13tt is dohc

    the transmissions are the same, but there might be some differences in bell housings mounting points to the engine. i cant confirm this tho

    i say that cuz i read the US 3g V6 transmissions have the same number as Evo 8-9 with 4g63, but no one has tried putting V6 tranny on I4 or vice-versa, i think

    thanks for the compliments

    Yes I did swap from regular galant V6 2.5 n/a. The 6a13tt (dohc) was never made as a FWD so the gearbox coupled to them as standard is for AWD with transfer box etc etc. The V6 6A13 N/a FWD (F5M42) box does couple up OK but I did have to do mods like moving the front turbo wastegate actuator and the rear turbo had to alter the little cast downpipe to clear the subframe swapping flywheel and clutch was another plus a complete rewire and ECU. It's not a straightforward job, but it can be done. Not sure about USDM driveshafts though?

    There are a lot of unrelated posts in there but I hope it helps.

    Ah, sorry about that, probably my fault, it's in the members area. Slightly different set-up to these forums. I'm off to work now, but I'll see if I can do some cutting n pasting later.
    As mentioned before though, this was an 8G conversion, just a little concerned how it would go in the 7. I do know however a similar thing has been done with an FTO, so that maybe worth looking at aswell.

    Well my car's chassis is said to be the same as the 8g Galant , So i dont think that would be an issue, and if you could send me that link it would be greatly appreciated.

    Whats your thoughts on this Mko? Do u think its worth doing this instead of the other swap or turbo u recommended?

    Your Chassis is not the same as an 8G... Its the same as an 8G vr4 wich is COMPLETLY different! The 7G and the 8G have the motor mounts swaped so the engine is on the other side... Just becasue an 8G did it does not mean its going to be just as easy for you.. In order to do it you would probibly have to make custom mounts...

    Scott, he has a Sebring and if you read above I already said the they are the same as 8g World Spec. My 5 lug swap came off a Sebring since they a much less beat than the 2g Eclpses

    so what do i need for a turbo set up? , pistons? rings? ecu? gimme the break down . il attempt a 6g73 turbo setup i just hope i have enough space . every single person told me its not doable because theres absolutly no space to do anything, even if u relocate many items.

    none of that. Since you have 2.5L even a 16g would work for you. Just need to buy a DSM turbo flange, a 2 to 1 pipe reducer with 2.5'' outlet so you can reroute you exhaust pipes to the turbo. Then you need a 8:1 fuel pressure regulator (thats for 8 psi boost, if you want 10 psi you need 10:1 fuel pressure regulator). And Im not sure what type of fuel control do these ECU use since there is no MAF, I have to look it up. Then you need boost gauge and a wideband and a larger exhaust (if you havent upgraded yet)

    heres the picture i posted before.



    You dont put the turbo where the exhaust manifolds are. you need to get the exhaust flow to a spot that easily accessible. youll need a 90 deg bend because the turbo oil drain must alsways point straight down.

    16g flange

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/DSM-1...item588755e977

    then you gonna need to drill the pan and make an oil return line and probably run at least 3-4 feet SS 10 or 12 AN line to the pan

    Of course blow off valve - 1g BOV is just fine.

    Intercooler too. Side mount would be very sufficient.

    Some like this

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1-SID...item2303c18b48



    Youll need a welder (if you dont have one already) and some other tools.

    Part wise, consider buying some weldable o2 sensor bungs, other flanges, pipes, IC pipes ( you can weld some exhaust piping), probably 90 deg bends, 45 deg bends,bolts, nuts, washers


    thats a typical single turbo conversion for any FWD v6 and even 8g vr4. theres never enough space.

    ive gotten some suggestions from mechanics and was told if this is done, even keeping it at low psi the engine wont last long. plus looking at the parts and fits i tried to see where i could fit everything and it seems not worth the effort... i still think 6a13tt is worth doing because of the pricing. 800 for whole engine and tranny with turbo set up and ecu? its the same price as buying the turbo setup for the current engine.

    Confuuuuused!.
