Is it a GS or a GST Spyder? If it's a GS with the 2.4l Chrysler engine, probably not (at least without some kind of serious forced induction) That's a SOHC motor without much room in the engine compartment for anything extraneous. And it's no firecracker at 141hp.

If it's a GST Spyder it's got the 2.0l turbo DOHC 4G63 motor. This is certainly capable of over 400hp, with relative ease. Go to www.roadraceengineering.com (http://www.roadraceengineering.com) to find out how.:2cents:

the 2.4l in the spyder gs isn't a chrysler motor, just to let you know. It is the mitsubishi 4g64. The 2.0 nt that is in the hardtop gs is the chrysler 420a. Also, if it's a spyder gs, go to 4g64.com

If its a 4g64 then go to hahnracecraft.com that's what I'm going to do with my spyder......unless anyone has had any problems with bolt on turbo's.

Oh yeah, you're right about that. For some reason I thought the Spyder GS had the 2.4l motor from the Dodge Stratus... I knew the hardtop 2G GS had the 420A (I have one, unfortunately) from the Neon, so my logic was based on assumption:icon16:. I wonder why they used a 2.4l SOHC motor in the GS Spyder, when there's a a 2.0 DOHC in the hardtop with 1hp less...

From what I've heard, cheaper bolt-on kits for the 2.0 and 2.4 GS (Spyder) sometimes don't work well with the engine as far as reliability. Hahn's kits however, have a very good reputation for quality and reliability. If your motor's 100% stock, go with a stage 1 kit which will get you around the 200hp range (with nothing else). A stage 2 kit would be better installed on a motor with internal reinforcements.

The Spyder needed to be produced in turbo and non-turbo trims. Conertibles are about 500lbs heavier, so a non-turbo 2.0 ltr Spyder would have been *really* slow. They needed the 400cc's of extra displacement to compensate for the lack of a turbo in the GS Spyders. the 4G63 is a great engine...with all the bolt-ons available for that thing, you should have no probs making that car fast. 4G64's like mine are a pain in the ass if your thinking about bolt-on e-bay stuff... Shumyyal.

based on Msn's specs, the wieght differences are very minor in most areas.

GS - Automatic
Coupe - 2855
Spyder - 2888
33lb difference

GS - Manual
Coupe - 2932
Spyder - 2943
11lb difference

And the 4g64 is very similar to the 4h63, to the point where you can take a 4g63 head, and place it on the 4g64 to give yourself a dohc 4g64. And besides that, i consider any bolt-on enhancement from e-bay harmful for your car unless it's a reputable brand.
