Engine swap 97gst-into a- 97 rs?

[theguyverx2]

Is it possible to swap a 97 gs-turbo motor into a 97 rs? I am the owner of an RS model and I want the gst motor. Can this be done if all the parts are collected, seems as though both models are the same in enigine bay size? If anyone knows, PLEASE HELP...THANKS

WHOA, no need to reply...i searched this site and got my answer....it cant be done easily. DAM, I need a new 420 motor than, my old one may not be worth saving at this point. But how much are the 97 420a motors? And when boosted, who has seen the performance side of it.

I am at the stage where my car had just been paid off and I am trying to re vamp the entire engine set up. HELP

Just try another search! There are soooo many post about turboed-N/A engines (sounds wierd). Time consuming YES, impossible NO. Alot of people prefer the HAHN setup I believe. Here is a post.

This should help you out with anymore questions..... http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=37447&highlight=Hahn+turbo

its possible, but its a waste of money. sell your car and get a gs-t and it will be already done for you.

Yeah, I would have said that but I don't think he wants to since he just got done paying the car off.

Not this question again.

Turbo you're 420A. The best bang for the buck.
