i'm not familiar with the 4g67, but as long as the 4g63 trani bolts up to the 4g63 block, you should be good to go on that trani for up to about 350-400whp. i know this doesn't asnwer all of your questions but it's a start and it's all i got lol

Here you go bud, this question was bugging me, so I searched for it for you and voila....

It's a thread from Tuners, so you'll have to fix the addy, but it will answer your questions for you.
I can understand the reason for not just going out and finding a stock turbo DSM. By the looks of it you've put some time and money into your car.
Here's a quick rundown for you, although, it would be good for you to check out the entire thread.
Actually, here's what I searched and got..

I did the swap myself about a year ago. From 1.8L to 2.0L N/T
Understand one thing, dont buy 1990 car parts if you own a 91-94 DSM.
First of all the swap is not difficult. Make sure you own a car manual, like Haynes, etc...
Makes the job a whole lot easier.
Things I needed to complete the swap.
-ECU and Engine harness
-Drivers side motor mount
-Alternator, cuase the one from the 1.8 doesnt fit
-Intake pipe and MAF sensor
The transmission will bolt on to the 2.0L N/T engine and you are able to use the same axles.
