OK your profile says 2g. Are you working on a 2g or a 3g? If its a 3g not allot of people are going to be of help here. Not much support for 3gs here. If it is a 3g the 4g64 in it is reverse orientation to the 2g 4g64.

I have been wondering about using some evo8 parts on a 3g eclipse would work. But since I do not own one I haven't done much looking into it.

Hey man you best bet to get these questions you have answered, is Club3G. That is a forum specifically for the 3g eclipse. A lot of good info on there. Good luck with your build.

Yea I dont think many people here can help you with the 3G question but the link above should help you out and good luck with the build.

I would go to the 3gclub and see if it is possible to swap a evo 4-8 4g63 head on that 4g64 I think if it works that would be an awsome combo.

running a hx35 at 10psi is dumb... It would yeild no more or less power than a 14b or a 16g at that level.. they are designed for higher applications and the compressor map would suck at that pressure level..

Just find a totaled 3000 gt turbo or steath FWD and swap the drivetrain over. That would be fun.

3g's are a disgrace but the 4g64 cars are the better motors because you can swap a evo head and turbo on the car.

Moved to the Hangout where NON-DSM questions are supposed to go. Even though you have a 4g64, it's still in a totally different, non-DSM chassis, with completely different wiring, engineering, drivetrain, etc.

And please: No "What's a DSM and what isn't a DSM" arguments.

Have you looked into supercharging it? A lot of the time it's just an easier install than turbo charging it.

+1 on the 3kgt powertrain. Id love to swap a 6g motor into my 2g. I almost regret selling my 3s.


Also, the 3g eclipse is the biggest dissapointment the world has seen since the death of christ.
