What other parts can I put on a 4g37 to get more will a 4g93 head fit a header for 4g63 or 4g93 fit intakes anything I can get off another motor to get more power
 
Please rephrase your question... you're kinda all over the place.
 
What other parts can I put on a 4g37 to get more power? Will a 4g93 head accept a header from a 4g63 or 4g93? Are there intakes or anything I can get off another motor to get more power?

Fixed for those who couldn't understand the original post.

Honestly, the 4g37 was purely an economy engine form the factory. That little SOHC 1.8 really isn't making much power to begin with. I would swap a 4g63 DOHC head onto the engine (if possible, you'll need to look that up) so that you can use the 4g63 turbo manifolds to boost the engine. If your not looking to boost anytime soon, all you can really do is intake and exhaust. But I guess to answer your question exactly, no there really isn't a manifold from another engine that you can use since the 4g37 and 4g63 have different heads. Maybe try the manifolds from a Spyder GS. They are very similar to the 4g63 DOHC head manifolds, but made for SOHC application. But once again, it might not work since the heads are different.
 
Sorry, but why are you trying to get more power out of a 4G37? Perhaps if people know why your doing this, they would be more willing to help you out. That said there is a growing amount of people who dislike spoon feeding. It helps to do SOME research on your own. Generally when people see you have done some research, but still have questions, there much more likely to help.
 
Nothing from the 4g63 motor/headwise/manifolds etc will swap, they are almost completely different motors.

There is really nothing you can do to get more power out of the 4g37. Very few people have turboed them and it is a much bigger investment than just buying a 4g63 car and the gains are no where near worth it. Most turbo'd 4g37s end up at around 150-200whp.

I have a 4g37 for a DD and I'll just say keep it as such and save up for a turbo dsm. Enjoy getting 30+ mpg and the stupid awesome reliability.

I agree... why spend all the time and money building up your 4G37 when you could keep that as a reliable daily driver and buy a turbo version that already has what you want stock..
 
its a 4g37. i just got a 4g63 n/t my friend gave me a turbo today can i use it on the n/t block can it handle its.i have done research nothing is helpful . my 4g37 is getting about 18mpg and started ticking bad today so the mpg and reliability is not that great
 
I had a 4g37 once and it was painfully underpowered. On the other hand, it was a great dd. I see what you're talking about. That being said, you'll never achieve any power gains that are worth mentioning. To make mine more tolerable to drive, I installed a cold air intake, cat back exhaust, and advanced the timing. Only issue was, every year at emissions time I would have to retard the timing back as I would fail on nox otherwise.
