I was just wondering if there is any specific logic to this? I don't care for the 2.4 '64 thing much my self but I almost feel like I am missing out on something. I know most of the benefits and down sides but more insight is always welcome.

Well, I'm going to toss out my $0.02 as how I interpreted .guest.'s comment. I believe he is saying that if DJGHOST has not done enough research on the 4G64 to know whether it is possible to do the 4G64/63 swap, he should probably be straying away from it.

Yes, it is possible. The only real downside is the extra torque that may break tranny parts. If you can call that a bad thing! Oh, and Nash will call you a cheater :P

You do have to buy some specialized parts to do it though.

Hey I'm only 75% newbie, then maybe when I finally purchase my own DSM, I'll be down to 50% newbie :lol: :lol:

Having too much torque is like having too many fine women and too much money at your dispossal. ;)

One of the reasons I went with the 2.4L is the fact that my car is heavy. 3400lbs without the driver. Torque is what launches and accelerates a car. HP is just a calculated figure based on how much work that engine can do over a period of time. There will be many who will jump in on this and say I'm wrong, but I'm not. It's great to build an engine that can make 800hp, but if only makes it from 7000-9000rpm what good it is to you. With a 2.4L you can make the same power as the 2.0L with less boost and less strain on the internals of the engine. There is a point where the added stroke will come into play though, you will not be able to rev it as high. For a street driven car the 2.4L makes more sense. For an all out drag car where high rpm & high boost are the way to go, the 2.0L or the 2.14L will work great. When I look at a dyno sheet I look for the torque curve first, that tells me how usable the engine's power is.

No FLAMING.
If you don't agree then say so and why. Any remarks that are intended to start shit will be deleted.

Ah, i'm just in a cranky mood. 2.4's are nice but only a few will have nicely running ones imho. The others who attempt it will never finish it or will probably not even get them started. There's the advantage of using bigger turbos and having a nice powerband with big power capable turbos. It's more of a just nice to have imo.

:woowoo: I have also read that the 2.4's crankwalk also. This is just me benchracing though.
