you cant swap a vr4 engine. So that really should answer your question. Ripp stage 1 and 2 are also very good and cheaper esspecially on labor since the stage 3 comes with pistons that need to be put in

Ripp makes HORRIBLE quality parts.
They blower setups they made for the V6 Tiburon were boycotted by the entire Tiburon community.
Horrible craftsmanship, **** poor custom service, and so much other crap.

Mike, who was the guy back in the day with the 3rd Gen turbo that lived in Tampa?

Depends there were about 10 of them in central FL. Basically all of the admin and moderators on club3g FL (mitsuoafl.com)

The Ripp setup on the 3g has been pretty good. It performs very well only major compaint was the "black or grey box" which was supposed to tune itself. Other than that the meth setup was new back then and a newer more modern meth kit will help out great deal to make sure your motor is safe
