how hard is it to put a 6 bolt turbo engine into a 95 and up TSI

I have $6,000 into my crappy 92 talon and was wondering if I could find a cheap 2nd gen to put the engine into

Up here in VT there is a 95 real cheep.

MITSUBISHI EXLIPSE RS 1995, high rise spoiler, black. Lots of new parts. Runs good. Daily driver. Needs some work. Must sell. $2,000/best offer. (802) 434-7784.
Subclassification: MITSUBISHI 5/29/2003

It's a starting point. :dunno:

well its not really that hard at all........

here is a list of things you will need

2g alternator with mount
2g power steering with mount
2g engine mount(trimmed(
2g ac if you keep it i didnt
2g knock sensor
2g starter plate
2g starter
you have to wire up the 1g cam sensor to the 2g harness
and ummm i belive thats about it.

and you will have to change all of the sensors and such off of your 2g intake mani to your 1g mani, if i forgot anything on my list check www.magnusmotorsports.com and go to the tech articles and it will show you how to do everything.

good luck

He's wanting to swap it into a 2nd gen TSI, not replace a 420a in the 2gnt.
