A friend of mine has a non turbo AWD galant. He bought it as a shell a year ago and has sone nothing to it. I wanna buy it from him cause i have an extra running motor and most of the accessories.
Do I need to do anything special to convert it to a 6 bolt turbo?? The guy he bought it from said it had a turbo engine in it when it blew up. The bottom end, tranny and transfer case are all still there, but i don't know how to tell if it was a turbo motor or not. Any ways to tell???
If it was a turbo engine, will everything bolt up just like it would in a 1g? I don't know if there are mechanical differences between a 1g and a galant.
What about shift linkage?? Is it specific for the galant or interchangable with all dsm's?
And side mount intercooler/ piping same or different?\
Radiator, power steering lines, coolant lines, downpipe, wiring/sensors, etc???
Thanks for the help!
