thanks for the advice, realy appreciate it. what engine would be the best for
torque + but also good speed. i do want to put a turbo on it so i wont something
that will handle the boost with out to much modification. But if its worth it
its not a real big thing as i am an apprentice mechanic so i got access to all
the tools, and the one that requires the least modification to the car.
thanks
Mitchell

more poke then the crappy 1.5 and will still be a sleeper.. or the proton
m21/gti, not as good as the 1.6 but is a 1.8 dohc still good fun, i had a 1.8 in
mine for about 5-6 months scared a few people with it in there too..

lancer any early 4G93 engine will bolt straight in,but you will need to get the
early Mitsubishi ECU and engine loom to go with what ever motor you get. It
isn't as simple as adding a turbo later on

break,you would have to completely rebuild it to suit the turbo power,Somewhere
around $8K to rebuild properly.Being on P's makes it hard now to make the right
decisions,you would end up having to do 2 conversions ie N/A then Turbo, 2
different engines. If it were me I would be looking for a GSR 93T engine doing
it up now and waiting till you come off your P's before doing the conversion.
