> The only engine considered to be a DSM engine by DSMer’s is the 4G63. If you turbo a Mopar 420A they may accept you but if you show up in a 3000GT, they won’t. The lines are so vague as to what can really be classified as a DSM that DSMer’s drew them in. The fact is Diamond Star Motors was disolved before the last turbo eclipse rolled of the line and didn’t even exist when the holy grail of all DSM’s, the Galant VR4, was in production.

so basically put a 4g63 from a 1st gen into a 2nd gen?
