Well if your engine is going to blow up, wouldnt it be cooler to have a turbo on it when it blows up?

If you include swap and 420a into you need to stop, drop, roll, and reconsider.

do NOT swap a 420a motor in there and then turbo it.. why don't you swap in the turbo eclipse motor in the first place?

420a = $(4g63 - a few bucks savings) + 2000 dollar turbo at least
4g63 = winner

Good luck trying to get a 4g63 in a NT DSM. How many times have we covered this now?

you didn't like my formula?

i didn't know you couldn't do it, i would have imagined, being the same car it was possible, but i guess i was wrong
i thought the formula was neat.
