P.S. Just to clarify the 4 cylinder 4g63 engine is in the 1991 to 1999 Turbo model eclipses which is not the same as the EVO 8 engines....which are the same engine model code...however..it has 271 hp...oppose to the eclipse model engine which is 210
I'm interested in knowing exactly whats different between the turbo 2G DSM engines and the EVO 8. I mean how different are the newer 4g63's from the older ones?

I think personally most of the power difference is probably just related to the turbo setup. Bigger tubo setup = more power. But of course I dunno how much more superior the engine itself is and thats whats interesting to know.
