Re:mint 1985 conquest!!!!!!!
So you're telling me you would rather go through the hassles of wiring in the entire EFI from a DSM find a custom bellhousing to adapt the motor to the transmission, or go the stupid route and custom fabricate all the mounts to stick the w58 toyota transmission in with a custom bellhousing and a custom driveshaft and a modified tranny tunnel. About the only advantage i can see with the 4g63 is the MPFI.

*high fives random-strike quickly washing hand with acid* hopefully in a week i can have my starion running and have a 14b 1g mas and water injected running 15 lb's, but for now time to save the pennies.

Re:mint 1985 conquest!!!!!!!
the 12A is the smallest turbo mitsu makes i beleive and it's on the conquest. The swap for a 4g is ALOT more difficult than swapping a k series into a eg. A crapload of fabrication is required for that ---- to get in (as in there is no little mount kit you can buy). The only car fit for a 4g swap is the mighty max truck, that ---- would be pimp

Well the 2.6 is a truck engine made for the MMC Pajero. And in the stock Starion it's quite slow.
Tiny turbo, shitty heads, shitty intake manifold and shitty fuel injection.
That exact combo makes the 2.6 slow.
I'm not saying it can't be made fast by some clever modifications. I'm just saying that the 2.6 starion isn't any faster than the 2.0 starion, they only differ about 20hp when stock and the 2.0 starion is 400lbs lighter than the 2.6.
Don't get me wrong, I like the Starions but I think the mitsu 2.6 is an inefficient piece of ----.
