Default New engines

I own a 98 eclipse GS and I am looking for a new engine to put in my car. Does anyone have any suggestions for a new one? I want a fast one

a GS does not have a 4g63.
A plain GS is a 420A 2.0ltr, and a Spyder GS is a 4g64 2.4ltr.

your not going to want to do that it has been talked about a million times its not worth the money to swap in a 4g63 or 4g64 it would be cheaper to just sell your gs and buy another eclipse seriously the 420a is not meant for boost but if you can find a 4g63t good luck getting that in your gs

you can't stick a 4g63 into a 420 shell without a TON of custom work that is not worth it.
And the the 4g64 is just as useless as a 420A.
