    No PnP unfortunately. Tuning is very analytical, if that's not something your comfortable with, id steer you away from MS and push you to PF.

    PF will limmit you to some extent, although its easier, MS is the way to go.. it will give you overhead room to do what ever you want. the price you pay is complexity.

    MS is the way to go. It can be done and done reliably. I only drive in car in the summer, but when i do drive it, its very reliable (Insert DosXX commercial here lol). However, my regret, is going MS. i have an extremely modded MS2.. comparable to a highly modded MS3, but the MS3 would still have more options, it would be the way i suggest you go. To be daily driven, things like IAT placement, IAC valve type (suggests 4 wire stepper), sequential Injection (requires a low Z ball and seat injector) would be some of the options id choose. Now the tuning is a whole differnt story.. Il be the first to say, i tried to learn it myself, and it cost me a motor.. since then , i have of course been schooled by a few (i consider Pro) MS tuners, and now i tune my own and others just fine. I will say being reliable is a mix of correct setup and the correct tune.

    Correct, its a 2.4 swap with a 420a Head.

    [I]"How much more money would it cost to do a 2.4 in my eclipse compared to buying a built 420a?" [/I]This is a sticky question. The main cost difference is in the custom fab we would need to do. IE the pan and pass side mount.
    [I]
    "Im serious about doin this,Im not some young kid just talkin crap"[/I] LOL, no worries, we take everyone's inquiry seriously :)

    [I]"I also been runnin the same ebay GSP turbo since 23,000 miles ago.Maybe Ive just been lucky!"[/I] That is lucky! I think the lower pSI is also helping, i dont hear too often these turbos last that long :)

    [I]"Maybe I could just use the old head"[/I] This is a possibility, It would need to be checked for flatness and any leaks. We can at least use the core. We can build ya a head as well. The pricing comes from your goal.

    Speaking of which, what is the goal for the car? This will help us pick and choose whats best for the setup, and generate a quote.

    We also have higher rpm redline levels than the 4g63 guys not to mention if a 4g63 guy is going to turbo over 20 psi it is highly recomended to do a rebuild and get rid of the 14b so there argument is lost. As for the AWD guys yeah 1/4 mile in genrall is a help but only a 4/10 of a second better than the fwds look at the stock 1/4 of the GST and compare to the GSX. It is all over exaggeration and beats the purpose of DSM without chrysler(420a) it is more like mitsubishi.

    Yeah that dudes a folkin idiot aint he. There is a guy on here with a 420a named 95carterRS and he ran a 13.4 on falken street tires, 7 psi on the china t3t4 with an ebay turbo kit, stock internals, stock injecters and no tune. On top of that he did not redline shift he shifted at 5500 rpm so that dumb azs can go suck one not to mention the stock v6 mustangs run high 13s with the best driver of all time ever was a 13.9. your average joe ID think so.

    The 2GNT head will bolt up to the 1st gen non-turbo 2.4 block and use the same HG too. The fabrication parts needed are the passenger motor mount and a cut/modified 2.4 oil pan to work with a custom down pipe.

    You asked me this about a year ago or so - look at your visitor messages.

    It is a stock NV-T350 5 speed trans. The passenger side motor mount is a one-off custom made mount out of stainless steel. The mount on the block is originally from the Stratus, while the part that contains the Prothane insert is the SS piece.
