Default How much $$$ for motor rebuild

Hey everyone, how much would it cost me to have the motor rebuilt in my 93 Eclipse it has the 4g63, I want a little more power but I dont to go nuts it is my DD. I dont have mad money to do this but I do want it done right. Any places in my area I could take it to, I live right outside of Philly in PA. Thanks in advance everyone.

if you are only looking for more power just strap a turbo onto it, the 4g63 can take up to 13lbs on stock internals.

the internals can handle ALOT more than that. its the fuel system that maxes out first.

i thought the block could only handle up to 13 lbs, then after you bore/forge it you were good up to like 23 lbs on stock head...

You can get a used non turbo jdm engine off ebay for like $500.00. I know its not a rebuild, but it will have low miles and wont go too deep into your pocket.

Jnz tuning, they do it all, (215) 997-6850 ask for josh or eric. They are located in Lansdale, maybe 15 min from norristown.

No the block is fine for high boost. I think you could at least go up to 20psi without a problem. The first problem with high boost comes in around 15 psi when the stock turbo (t25) starts to become inefficient, then the next thing like eclipsed4u said is the fuel system (hitting fuel cut) but the bottom end can handle far more.

well going back to the topic. I know a place where you can get the full rebuild kit for $215. Not totally sure how much a place will charge to do it though. But if you can find a place than i can show your where to get this...unless you find the kit cheaper that is
