if you want a 4cyl just get a GST/GSX, would be cheaper than your whole operation.

If the SRT-4 didn't suck, and wasn't slow, it'd be worth it.

SRT4 does not suck... its a neon that has a 0-60 less then 6 seconds for under $20k They sold a boat load and if people... err kids weren't so dumb they wouldn't blow up. Lets up the boost and not take care of other things first... like changing the oil.

Sure if you have a money tree somewhere and love to burn all the green stuff off go ahead. On top of that if you have the time and money go ahead no one is going to stop you from doing what you really want to do.

But you may want to keep a list of all the parts, labor and time Why? By the time you are done you may have spend more then you have bought your car. Rebuild your engine or buy another car it will be a lot cheaper then the project you have in mind.

Yeah the Eclipse section of this forum. Ask there.

This isn't the place for this question. I left it because you posted before I started cleaning up this section.

Once I see that you started a thread in that section I will be deleting this thread.
