Hello, I have a Mitsubishi Eclipse 2G GS 2.0L Naturally Aspirated 4g63 engine and I'm considering a turbo for it. I've read a bit on the internet about fitting a turbo on a N/A engine and some people don't recommend doing it. However, the Eclipse GS-T and GS-X come with turbo straight from the factory and as far I know, it's the same 4g63 engine. Does that mean it's a bit healthier? I'm not very familiar with the technical terms of an engine, I understand the basics and the essential information with how the engine interacts with the turbo etc, and I realize that I'm going to have to buy a kit and change a number of parts. However, I'm interested in knowing exactly what else I need to do. Do I need a new ECU? Will my engine be able to bear the compression? Will I be able to do this myself? Do I need to upgrade and other parts, like fuel pump etc? I consider myself a handy person, but I'm not going to be able to weld/modify complicated parts myself. What do I have to expect for a project like this?
Experiences, tips and price estimates will be received with gratitude! I'm hoping it's doable, considering the other Eclipse models come with the same engine combined with a turbo.
The car is a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2G GS N/A 2.0L with approximately 200K KM.
Thanks in advance!
