so should i do the 5spd swap and get the turbo maybe next year?
or should i just turbo the auto?
Like what Leicoolya said theirs nothing wrong with running a UPGRADED auto. In fact it might even be faster than a 5 spd in some cases when you hit boost (and subsequently redline) way to fast to be able to shift a manual yourself (then again the only people who seem have to have a problem with this are running sub 10s).
Also you should keep your block and swap out the head with the 4g63t head. Go on club3g.org for more info about this.
And finally your poll suggesst you have enough money to do any of these. Do you? A new engine will cost a HELL of a lot, and will take quite a while to find.

Not necessarily... your local junkyards or the national one known as ebay can help. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif

DAMN YOU, damn you and your 4G63 block 7Gs!!! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif
Wait a second. Looks like he has a 64 block. So what I said above might hold true. In fact it looks like the 2nd gen eclipse might not even work.
Now this is the for the 4G64 out of a 3G....

Here's how it works for people who dont know:
1G Motor - 4G63 Engine Code (opposite orientation from our cars)
2G Motor - 4G63 Engine Code (opposite orientation from our cars)
NON-turbo DSM Motor - 420A Engine Code (SAME orientation as our cars but nothing else is similar - it's a Neon motor)
2G NT Spyder - 4G64 Engine Code (opposite orientation from our cars)
EVO 1-3 Motor - 4G63 Engine Code (opposite orientation from our cars)
EVO 4-7 Motor - 4G63 Engine Code (SAME orientation as our cars)
RS/GS Motor - 4G64 Engine Code
GT Motor - 6G72 Engine Code (will NOT fit any of the above engines)

Please shut your mouth now. The 7g motor is not setup like the 8g motor. I figured you would have at least looked at a 7g engine bay before you go and make up these assumptions that 2g 4g63ts will not fit. If that was true 1g motors wouldnt fit either. But that obviously isnt true as I have a 1g 4g63t and it fits fine...

I suppose your correct...though I don't know why it required a whole paragraph to say "No, you [Jet Black] are incorrect." Lets not start acting like some prepubacent girls here. "Anti-Drama Team Captain"...
Also Sebaz, while the i4 might have a slight weight advantage, its still way to heavy to make any real differance. The weight distribution for the v6 is 62:38, and the i4 is 61:39, so either way its pretty bad.
