it's nice to see people thinking outside the box though. i'm doing some research and comparison on the evo/RA engine to see what we can swap. coming down to not much.
Thank you monkey, everybody please listen to this guy.

He's in Canada so no evo. I would just get the RRM turbo easier and less time consuming than an engine swap.

in canada we can have evo engine 1 to 7 from japan for just like 1500 us and it comes with tranny ecu turbo intercooler headers everything and all wiring so it s more cheap then to this instead to buy rrm turbo and you now have two engine in case of one explose lol for myself im gonna try to put that evo turbo in my ra and im gonna sell the rest of the engine to a friend that have an evo 5 !!! so that s a cheap way to boost your car !!!

Just turbo the 2.4. It cost less, has fewer head aches and that guy down in PR has shown that 500 whp can be done. The stage 1 kit from RRM will give you enough to hang with a stock EVO from a roll.

All DSM engines face the wrong way.

1500 for Evo 1 or 2. I can't see the same price for Evo 4 and up.

Yeah, I'd vote to turbo your own engine. If TurboTechPR can get 508whp out of his ralliart engine, I think that you'd be fine.

because our insurance is cheaper than yours, and we like the fact that our mods don't void the warranty
