Re: evo engine swap

But nobody actually had a real answer for this. will this take up more money than having the gst put into it?

Re: evo engine swap

If no one posted an answer last week, I doubt any new information will pop up this week. I would rather see it added to the last thread than a new one started, but thats just me. As said over there, at least it spins the same way and faces the same way. The rest is just as difficult as a regular 4g63 swap, and hardly worth it when AWD turbo DSMs are 2k to 5k and come with AWD to boot.

I hope you realize this thread is from 2 years ago... You really need to look at the posted dates before replying to a thread.

Re: evo engine swap

yes actually it has been done, there was a thread about it in the dsmlink forums.
here are some pics, i guess all said and done it costs about 7k to do the swap.
