3.0 stealth turbo charged...

Hey everyone a buddy of mine wants to go turbo on his 97 ESi he plans on dropping a 3.0 stealth turbo charged engine in it. Will this engine swap work/fit in the dsm's ?
thanks Joe

1. It would be very expensive to do and would cost less to just go buy a TSi and
2. even if it did somehow magically fit in there, there would be no way to work on it without pulling it back out

Good luck shoehorning a 6G72TT into a DSM's engine compartment. It barely fits in the 3S with all it's intake and exhaust piping.

you can do anything u want to any car. ive seen a rs with a supra engine, of course, the guy who owned it spent half a fortune workin on it. theres a HUGE process to go through that, and oh, did i mention the fact that he had no space for ANYTHING ELSE besides the engine? bye bye a/c. he also had to push the wall which contains the engine further back. but thats the least of his worries, i think its stupid, too much money, unless ur loaded as a mo'fu****, or ur dating sum rich bi***.
