This is where the wolf resides within the sheep’s clothing. I have swapped out the stock 4G61 1.6L turbo engine in favor of the 4G63 2.0L turbo engine from a 1991 Mitsubishi Eclipse. The swap was an extremely simple, plug & play affair due to the similarity between the two motors. The stock transmission is used with a limited slip differential. The car came stock with thick equal-length axles that do a surprisingly great job of controlling torque steer, and completely quell wheel hop. The 4G63 has a set of HKS cams, 3” exhaust, larger injectors and a Mitsubishi 20g turbocharger. The best ¼ mile E.T to date is an 11.67 with a trap speed of 123 miles per hour. I have owned this car for 5 years and drive it a few days a week. For more info, please visit my site at www.turbomirage.com.
