Outlander Roadest 2012 20G Turbo Swap
Hello guys, I’ve been thinking about a swap for my outlander for a while now. It is an Outlander Roadest JDM model, It has been with me for about 7 years plus, now.
Sadly, My car is filled with issues; such as, NO Traction Control, Stability control, ABS etc. So I figured why not swap it out, since it’s like almost on it’s last leg. The swap I wanna go for is the Lancer GT or Evo X engine swap (4B11T) . The car is 2WD version so I guess 4WD conversion is out of the equation, I’d love to go down that route someday, If possible. Until that I’d just like to enjoy some turbo spools. So my question is that , can I swap the engine and transmission (SST\ Manual) without any issues? And do I have to do anything about the transmission? Will I be able to use the stock engine and trans mounts of the car or does it need to be modified? It has a 6 speed Automatic from factory. I’d like to hear from you guys what you think of this, and what route should I take. If anyone has anyone idea/experience regarding this chassis or platform, please help me out.
I'm just a regular guy who loves cars and ways of making them fast, I'd really appreciate if anyone of you can chime in with your thoughts.
Thanks
