Searching would have been your friend here...
1) You cant swap a 4g63(turbo engine)
2) There isnt any other engine you can swap in
3) Its not worth the money to turbo it because what you will have stuck in you could have bought a gst/x
4) Mods you could do, air intake, headers, exhaust. You wont really notice much of anything from that stuff though...

That depends on what your looking to get. The entire running engine? 7/6 bolt? just the block and build it? etc. You cant swap it though, dont even think that. 1 minute on ebay and i found these
7 Bolt
6 Bolt

Yeah i understand and dont take it like i'm trying to be a d1ck. Its just that people come in and ask that same question weekly, "how do i swap a turbo engine in my gs" and it gets annoying after a while. But any questions just ask!

You cant swap a 420a engine out for a 4g63. Lewis91 try doing a search before you post.

Well, its definatly possible, if your willing to throw away a very very large amount of cash[:'(]. And its most definatly not worth it[&:]. Youd have to be very mechanically inclined too. I wouldnt suggest it[:'(], unless the boneyard is your gs' destination, lol.
