[t-dogg10]

has anyone ever attempted putting togeather a turbo kit using stock parts from a gs-t?. . .if so, how much boost can you hold, time and custom fabrication. . .and anyother stuff i left out

you can't use many if any stock parts from a gst

true.. a couple of guys have build custom turbo kits around here though, for much cheaper i believe, but with more headaches.. u just need the basics, turbo, manifold, oil line kit, fpr, vacum lines, bov, intercooler, intercooler piping, rubber couplings for intercooler, fuel pump, internal or external, boost gauge, downpipe.. and some other stuff im sure im missing, someone will add it in though.!

A turbo kit is pretty simple but using parts off a 4g63 just isn't logical. You may have better luck getting parts off of other factory turbo cars.

does a turbo charged dodge neon still use the 420a?. . .if so, what about parts from that?

 

[Bd1000Eclipse]

no, its not a 420a anymore.

That's not true Bd it is the 420a, it's the 2.4L though. What motor did you think it was? Yeah this could be feesable but cost would be high. That car is brand new so the parts will not just be in a junkyard somewhere, you'll have to get them from the dealer.

Are you sure it's the 420A? I've read elsewhere that it's an A853

actually it is kir, the motor is a A853.. what made you think it WAS a 420a?

You're right guy's, I hadn't looked into the srt4, I assumed it would use the 2.4L 420a because that's what I had heard. So no none of those parts will work either. I am wondering about their tranny though, I know it won't bolt up, but maybe the guts would go in out case...... those gear ratio's look nice.

Wasn't callin you out Kirby, just wanted to get it straight in my head (I get confused easily). IMO - I think the Neon needs to change the headlights though they look funny on that car. Just my personal opinion

 

[Bd1000Eclipse]

i'm not sure if the trannies are the same or not, if they were that would be a good swap for you turbo guys with 420as

It's cool bro, I had not done my research before I spoke. That's what happens when you do that. The tranny's prolly won't work but since one is the NVG-t350 and the other is the 850 I was just thinking....
