In a previous post: Help!, I read that you can put and evo head on a rs. How much do they cost, where can i get one, is it difficult to put on, and how much hp should i expect to see, oh yeah (noobish question) whats different with the evo head than the rs head.

its possible but not many people have done it. the reason? an evo head will run you more than $1500.

you also will have to get a standalone of some sort as well to make it work. You can get an AEM EMS if you have a 5spd, otherwise you have to look for another standalone option.

the EMS will work for the sporty. a guy on club3g.com has done some custom wiring to make it work on his.

the diff is that the evo head is a. A DOHC while the rs is a SOHC
b. The EVO head was disigned to have a turbo on it while the rs one wasnt

sorry im bringing this one back from the grave here.. but I have a few questions.. The rs is the 2.4l sohc right? why do you need to put an evo 8 head on it? why not just put the eclipse 4g63 head on it? the intake manifold can easly be modified at a machine shop... if thats the case you could put the eclipse head on the car and use the eclipse ecu... and you would be set up with a turboed 3gen.. you could run on stock internals at least 8 psi..

If you have the 3G 2.4 you can boost more than 8 on stock internals. If youve got the 3.0, then 8 is a good number.
Just a side note that has probably been discussed before, but because it pertains to me I kinda want to ask around again. I have a 2000 GT 5speed, and am seriously considering going FI. I know it is a personal opinion kinda deel, but should I go with tearstone turbo, or RIPP SC? I am leaning towards the stage 2 RIPP SC, and would probably start off with stock internals at about 9psi, and then upgrade pistons and whatnot to run around 14psi. Any thoughts?

turbo makes turning up the boost like this...
*turn*
hahaha, that's wthe only thing i absolutely love
stock internals that are good on a 4cyl is 13 or so, but if you have a magical tune you can get to 15psi
the 4g63 head is oriented wrong to fit on it, the head must be off an evo4-evo8 and can also be off a hyndai of some sort that has a 2.4l dohc oriented the same way w/ similar stuff for much cheaper.. (check club3g.com it was somwhere)
