    suggestion - dont buy the 20V if you are intending on turbocharging!

    The cost you save by not buying and installing the 20V you can use towards hotting up your 16V and making heaps more power than you would with the 20V.

    If he is planning on doing it on sunday I would guess he already has the engine.

    Dude, one bit of advice, take notes/pictures so you can share the knowledge with the rest of us!!!

    yeah alreadly got the 20v for $650 with everything and only done 69000 k's

    got a small td04 turbo of a mitsi gsr and modified the 4agze's exhust manifold to fit turbo and 20v.

    will take loads of photos starting tommro when we pull the old engine out, also have 4agze injectors which are top feed. and the 20v injectors are not top feed, any easy way of using the 4agzes on thye 20v?

    no there isnt... the only way would be to use something like 3SGTE injectors which are side feed like the 20V.

    Bear in mind that you will HAVE to use an aftermarket ECU to control all of this.
