It can be done, it has been done, and Ive ridden in the results. The car is still a work in progress, but going though all the build pix is pretty cool. Not only did they swap in a EVO III 4G63-T, AWD, and most of the body panels, they also made it RHD, with the EVO dash and interior.

Mirage to Evo III RHD AWD Turbo swap.

Sometimes the part people are nice and give you extra bolts in case you throw one at your wife...

Yup, sure did! Thanks, Ian! I can't see the pics though.

Datt -- I read that other thread with metric hot douche or whatever -- funny stuff.

And numbnuts, no one untied me -- you left too much slack in the ropes. And if those nipple-clips were what you call "tight" then you must have carpal tunnel or something. I popped em off just by flexing my pecs.

I thought some of the real funny stuff went totally unnoticed. I even created a mountain with my mind using the power of suggestion.

I have this thing called a job that requires me to be here tomorrow

Plus I should hopefully be upgrading my turbo tomorrow evening. At the very least, I'll be changing out my brake pads for nice new ceramic pads.

I'm debating on waiting till I get my JWT ecu in before slapping the turbo on. I don't expect to overboost the stock fuel system, but I like to be careful. I spent too much money on the motor so far to blow it up from thinking I can keep the boost down.

Wow.. all that technical talk makes me all riled up. But, I still drive a Dodge Caliber.

I would seriously consider the ECU first. You can TRY and keep the boost down, but what is the percentage of certainty that the stock wont flip its s*** one day and juice your engine?

Putting anything on the Caliber is like putting colors on an emo kid, it just doesn't work.
