MKO's AWD/Turbo/DOHC/5 Speed Project

My blue shitz came in.

Now I have everything for the swap. Cant wait!!

On a side note:

I came across something that might help you 96-98 guys who want to do the DOHC swap with 1g head. Its a cool thing I got off 97 Sonata with 4g63.

As you know you the 1g intake manifold doesnt have the MAP sensor since its not OBD2 compliant and many of you have avoided it for that reason only. Theres an adapter sold, but first its expensive and second it doesnt look too good. Well heres the solution:

As I said it came off 97 Sonata and its a part made by Mitsubishi:

Excuse my drawing on that photo. it was for a some knuckle head on another forum who was trying to tell me that 2g have MAFs not MAPs.

So installation is simple as this: the plug is P'n'P and all you need to do is to source a vacuum to the hose.Done!!

I got this MAP of the j/y for $1.50. I told them it was a solenoid.

^ so would that do away with the karmon vortex?

So there's a hole and screws mount to install that map on a 1g intake? What is installed there originally and why couldn't you reuse a map from the galant?

**mko** · 01-23-2010, 04:55 PM

nope, sorry theres no such a hole for a MAP on 1g intake mani and since theres no hole you have to buy the adapter which is twenty some dollars or use the sonata MAP sensor

Just bought this:

I was debating between the muffler and 12'' dual slim fans. Now I cant wait to install it.

**DOHCstunr** · 01-28-2010, 07:33 AM

there's no MAP sensor on the 1g or 2g or 3g or 4g

its called a MDP
manifold differential pressure sensor.

all it does it verify EGR function. by looking for a Difference in Manifold Pressure when the egr is open or closed.

finally arrived. i love it. magnaflow FTW

**Galanttuner10** · 02-10-2010, 01:31 AM

just noticed something.. now the ARPs you got are main studs for the crank and thats what you were missing for the swap?

my ARP head studs are part#207-4203 and my main studs are your part number i see there on the box.

**mko** · 02-18-2010, 02:08 PM

Snagged this brand new 90 deg 3'' bend from the junkyard for $5. It was off brand new pacesetter exhaust. This will be my new full 3'' downpipe and full 3'' turbo back exhaust

**Galanttuner10** · 02-19-2010, 07:45 PM

hey.. did those ARPs end up being the right size?

**mko** · 02-19-2010, 07:58 PM

nope. they are 10mm main studs. Its all ok i got them really cheap, and Ill find a use for the some day

**Galanttuner10** · 02-19-2010, 08:09 PM

damn.. when you build a new motor it will come in handy. i got my ARPs on ebay from titan motor sports( the supra shop) for like 88 bucks if you havent found them cheaper

**mko** · 02-19-2010, 08:14 PM

yeap, just got them for 89 shipped

Now I need ARP rod bolts

if you buy eagle or manleys and a couple others they come with ARP rod bolts. what are the future plans here?

Well the plan is:

8g crank knife edged and micro polished
Eagle Rods
Manley or Wiseco pistons /still debating on the CR 8.5 or 9 to 1/
ACL bearings
ARP hardware kit
OEM Gasket

The cheap version of it:

my 7g crank
Evo8-9 Rods
Manley or Wiseco pistons
ACL bearings
ARP hardware kit
OEM Gasket

In addition I have a LSD transmission, still have to do the balance shaft deletion and buy a 6 bolt crank pulley. i read they are 2-3 pound lighter

on a side note, Ive decided not to take advantage of the features the Cyclone manifold offers. As Im writing im taking it apart for a porting job and removing the butterflies. It will be used as 1g manifold. Need to figure out how to make the EGR functional

**eclipsh** · 02-23-2010, 06:04 AM

Are you running a 1g head? If so those butterflies will really help with spool and low end. Not that a 2.4 really needs much help on spool-up.

What are your reasons for not running it with the valves?

Yeap, thats the reason. 2.4 gives you the 400-500 lower spool up, so if a 2.0L with 1g head and 1g intake mani can run fine then theres no reason a 2.4 with 1g head and open Cyclone shouldnt be fine.
