looking to build 500+ hp motor for my 98 galant, need ideas!
I want to build a 4-500 hp setup for my galant. i'm thinking i'm going to start with the 4g63 head on 4g64 block hybrid, bore and stroke it out and run a very high compression and run a big turbo. But i really dont know where to begin. also i want to convert to 5 speed ( 6speed if possible).
currently the car is an almost stock 98 galant ES AT 4g64.
Please give me ideas.
thanks!

If you want a 4-500 hp car start over with a different car... The money that you will have to stick into that thing wont be worth it.

You're going to be dumpin ALOT of $ to get it up to 500 HP. Besides that you DEFINATELY need to research things. I can't stress it enough RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!!!

This is one reason why I am so determind to show people what Galants are made of. Are you guys even aware that the Eclipse was based off of the Galant plateform? What car was the first to bring the 4G63t to the US? Wasn't the Eclipse it was the 6G Galant VR-4. You guys are knocking him for something that he is very capable of doing if he is pointed to the right track instead of being laughed at. Yes he needs to do his research but we all had to start somewhere.
Drop the 4G64 your running now and drop in a 4G63t. Your in a better position then I am with your motor facing the same way the DSM motors are. You want lower compression not higher and yes you can drop in a 5 speed. Drop in the 4G63t first then we can talk about building that motor......

the galant will never get to 500hp. look at all the 3Gs with that motor 1BADRS on neweclipse . org spent years thousands apon thousands of dollars and was just bealry getting over 400WHP. I dont think there are many 4G64 or even 6G72 eclipse\ galants that have broke 430WHP without nearly $10K in mods or more.... that is ALOT of money in MODS.... about $4000 to $5000 will only get you to 275WHP on the 4G64 and to get more after that it only gets much more expensive
