1G to a 2G

hey whats up with this im hearing that alot of ppl swap the engine of a 1g car to a 2g eclipse? is it better or something, bigger turbo? better performance? explain plz... and yea the car i got is a 99 gsx (stock)

The motor doesnt include turbo. You can put a 1g turbo on a 2g motor, or a 2g turbo on a 1g motor. The "motor" is just a block. All of the parts that attach to it are interchangeable. That being said, this has been discussed extensively on here in the last couple days. The 6 bolt 1g motor (90-92) can take more whp thanks to its larger rods, and it doesnt crankwalk as often (yes, it does crankwalk). The 92-94 1g motors are no better than the 2g motors, but the swap is the same.

aight coo thanks! but u think i should buy a better turbo than the stock turbo it comes with?

Depends on your goals. The 14b can run 12s on race gas (has actually done 11.84) and is a fun turbo on pump gas. But naturally everyone wants more, its your call. I think its a great turbo to learn how to tune on.

okey dokey smoooookey, in other words thanks :sunglasse
