Where do people get the 2.4 liter block from that they put into their cars? is it just a 2.0 bored out or what? If i were to do this, is it still a street driveable swap or just a strip swap? Should the engine be sleeved.

Link to the answer and explain how the info can be found, or just move on and say nothing.

:D
 
The engine is just a block from older mitsu's, I don't remember which ones. You don't need to sleeve the cylinders, the blocks are iron. http://www.dsmtalk.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=31111 has all the info you'll need.

I plan on building up a 2.4 sometime durring the winter on my daily driver 95 tsi awd. A lot of people have used them on daily drivers, but if you want to go all out it's a good motor to have for a weekend only car.
 
the 2.4 liters doesnt have TOO much to do with the extra .4 liters. I believe you can get 2.4 liters from your stock block simply by getting a 2.4 crank which has 12mm more stroke and getting custom stroker pistons with the wrist pin moved up an extra 6mm. Wiseco sells 4g63 stroker pistons.

Using the 2.4 block is supposed to be slightly better because the deck height is a little taller, meaning you wont have to move the wrist pin up on the piston...

Correct me if I'm wrong.

By using a 4G64 crank, which has a stroke of 100mm, and a 4G63 block, you get a 2.3L displacement. You will need the stroker pistons to accomplish this but you use a stock length off the shelf 150mm rod.

There are a couple of ways to do the 2.4L. You can, of course, get a 2.4L block and crank, use off the shelf 150mm forged rods of your choice and the 4G64 pistons from one of the various vendors. Or, you can do what I have done, use the 2.4L block and crank, have a custom set of 156mm rods manufactured and use a set of the custom Ross pistons from Magnus that are designed for the 156mm rod setup.

good call on the 2.3 thing, I dunno what I was thinking.

A 2.3 will save a lot of cash on parts, and that .1 isnt going to make THAT much of a difference. The rod ratio on both of those isnt that great.
