I know that this may be a stupid question, but recently my 420a took a dump on me and I was wondering, can a 96 Eclipse GS be made into a 96 Eclipse GST?! I can get the engine and turbo and stuff, but I just need to know if it can be done. Can a non-turbo engine be pulled and a turbo engine be put into a 96 GS? If so please let me know what parts I would need i.e. mounts, ecu, and stuff like that.
 
Can't be done. The 420a and the 4G63t are oriented 180* from each other. You'd have 5 gears of reverse and 1 forward. Motor mounts are different, wiring harnesses are different, ECUs are different - in short, don't waste your money trying.
