how do I find out what motor I have in my 93 Eclipse I just got, there is no model emblem on it. It has a 2.0 and I dont think there is a turbo in it. I know Im a idiot...LoL

135-hp, 2.0-liter Inline -4 without turbo
195-hp, 2.0-liter Inline -4 with turbo

those are the only 2 2.0's for that year

 

4g63 2.0 n/t
4g63t 2.0 turbo

If look in you engine bay there is a sticker and it shows eng code, paint code and vin.

Most likely you have a 4g63 non turbo.

 

i don't have a '93, my friend does, i just asked him, i have a gen 3

 

you have the 4G63

 

To be able to tell i need a pic of the engine bay

 

no you don't. there are 3 engines that come in the 1G eclipse.

1.8l = 4G37
2.0l n/t = 4G63
2.0l turbo = 4G63t

since he stated that it is a 2.0l without a turbo....it kinda narrows the choices down.

 

Thanks for the info everyone, so here is another one how hard would it be to do a motor swap to the turbo motor??

 

well very easy, stupid easy. You can put a turbo on your motor but the oil jackets in your block are different with the 4g63t causing lower oil pressure, also your internals are weeker, the 4g63t has different cams, intake manifold desgine, injectors, ecu fuel pump, head gasket, ect. hit up a junk yard and look for a 1g gsx,gst, laser turbo, lazer turbo awd, eagel tsi, tsi awd and just yank the motor, turbo, exaust manifold, down pipe, charg piping, smic, and ecu and your in business.

 

What??? The oil jackets are not different. The 4g63t and the 4g63 are the same exact block. The turbo has oil squirters, 7.8:1 compression piston. The non turbo block has a 9:1 compression piston and no oil squirters. The rods, block and crank are all the same.

Also to turbo a non turbo is not "easy" fist the wiring harness is different as are several other things you mentioned above. Its really not worth it.

If you want to turbo your motor honestly its a waste of time and $$$. Keep your car a n/t and look for a turbo car.
