    GDI converted to 4G93T

    Yea, so I have a gutless 1.8ltr GDI that has done nearly 250,000ks and is getting riped out of my 4WD, 4 speed Tiptronic Generation 8 Mitsubishi Galant. The model number is E-EC1A SRGC8

    http://www.cars-directory.net/specs/...1997_11/16119/


    I found another 4G93 that has done about 120,000ks and has a turbo bolted onto the side. It has a blowen bottom end con'rod bearing so i'm gonna fix that and throw that into my Galant.
    The engines a 4G93T out of a Mirage. I hope it fits.

    um firstly welcome, 2ndly WHAT a DUMB Choice frankly sorry...

    should do research before doing such a thing heres why...


    4G93 DOHC 16 Valve GDI Turbo
    Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) with turbocharger
    Total Displacement - 1834cc
    Bore - 81.0mm
    Stroke - 89.0mm
    Compression Ratio - 10.0:1
    Maximum Output - 118 kW (160 PS; 158 bhp) @ 5,200 rpm / 121 kW (165 PS; 162 bhp) @ 5,500 rpm
    Maximum Torque - 220 N·m (160 ft·lbf) @ 3,500 rpm / 220 N·m (160 ft·lbf) @ 3,500 rpm

    i think my lawn mower has more power than this motor.. its on par with the 2.4 GDI

    Haha ha, LOVE IT!!!
    Yea, I agree. The GDI engines are not great. I, umm, didn't buy a GDI engine for my Galant. I got a 4G93T out of a Mirage/Libero... not a lot better, I know but I can get around having to certify it, therefore saving hundereds.
    I like the idea of a 2.4 block with 2.0 crank and rods. That would have been cool, if my car had been a 2.4ltr block in the first place, but if I go above 1.8, I won't get around having to re-certfy my whole car for road use. Thats why i'm sticking with the little 1.8 mate.
    ...But yea, it's NOT a GDI!!! haha.
    p.s, I still think the GDI turbo is better than the GDI non-turbo

    um ithrow away so many 2.4 gdi blocks did 3 bout 3 weeks ago i nmy springclean lol..
    um re certification it HAS to be Certed or Recerted if your install is more than 30% of the Stock Motor the vehicle left the factory with so either way itll need to be certed .. and if 4wd then iclude 3 driveshaft hoops,stupid i know

    How do they rate percentage of a motor?.. HP?
    GDI = 148 bhp
    Turbo = 192 bhp

    So if... 30% of 148 = 44.4
    & 148 + 44.4 = 192.4
    ...Then i'm 0.4 HP in the clear... or not?

    & the Galant is an EC1A, the 'C' stands for 4WD. It's 4WD when it leaves the factory. Check the link at the top.
