[QUOTE="27needles, post: 1064736064, member: 79818"] Hi guys! Wow i miss posting in ZTH.. Been lurking once awhile over the years, but have not posted in so long. Hope most veterans are still active around here. hehehe.. I have been a casual modder since i started modding , and only played with N/A so far.. Small mods only, exhausts, and even the highest mod for me is only a performance camshaft on my old car.. Never touched the engine or forced induction before.. I tried Googling about "what to know about turbo engines tranplants" , and they only talked about either how to drive a turbo car, or how to actually DIY transplant the engine (lol!) . Is it troublesome transplanting to a turbo engine? I own a [B]Proton Pr eve non-turbo cvt[/B] now.. I saw that the usual engine transplant for Preve is 4g93t . But isn't this a very old engine? Does it still make sense, and is it reliable to transplant to this engine, to get more power ? (instead of changing a new car) . As i really miss driving Manual .. and my current car's CVT lag is slowly and slightly starting to get on my nerves ... Now I am thinking - If my gearbox ever fails (apparently it's a rare, but potential issue for my car) , i am thinking instead of repairing the gearbox, might as well top up abit more and do a 4g93t transplant with manual gearbox? Do feel free to tell me if I'm just being a noob, and not thinking straight. xD Thank you sifus! [/QUOTE]
