Talon motor swap
Ok, I'm having some trouble, I was reading about the Mitsubishi 4G63T motor on jspecauto.com, I would like to purchase an TSi AWD motor and tranny, however I noticed this:
"To put into non-turbo models you will require FWD 5-Speed transmission, computer and wiring harness from a turbo model."
I recently purchased a 1995 Eagle Talon ESi, Automatic, FWD. I wanted to put the TSi AWD motor in it. They sell the TSi AWD motor w/Automatic transmission. From my previous motor swap experience, this should fit, but all those swaps were with Nissans. Can anyone help me out?

RE: Talon motor swap
there is much more that what you have been told first off your car has a motor that is 180 degrees differant thatn the 4g63 so now you are talking about moving motor mounts as well as replacing all the wiring harness under the hood and for the tranny puting an axle in the back rather than the current suspenson oh and a new ecu and pcm. as far as im concerned if u want the AWD that bad sell it and buy a GSX if you just wanta turbo you will save alot of money by rebuilding the motor for a turbo than puting a kit on it.

Theres a talon DL, 1.8 bottom line car, esi = to the gs, tsi = to the gst, and the tsi awd = to the gsx.
