#70432, "2.4l + A604?"


          

I have been looking all over the forum cause I know someone had to have asked this but is there any where I can go to get a detailed install guide on putting a 2.4l into a '98 RS? I need to know:

1)How to do it?
2)Any special Computer/ECU stuff?
3)Can I use my A604?
4)Can I use my 420A Head and oil pan?
5)anything else I didn't ask but would be pertinent to the topic.

Please point me in the right direction, I need to know these things before I decide to buy a block, if its too much hassle for what its worth Ill just build a 2.0l, but I want the torque of the 2.4l. All help is greatly appreciated and I will eventually go turbo whether I use the 2.0l or the 2.4l, I just want to build the motor first.

Should be the same as a regular 2.4 swap but i would discourage you from keeping the 604...reason being that transmission even when performance built (to my knowlege no one gets it to survive 300ft/lbs. TQ even when upgraded, unless someone comes out with a completely upgraded set of "hard parts") does not like torque or high hp...just do a 5 speed swap at same time....save yourself the second remooval

BTW most people would have said SEARCH...because your questions have been covered over and over

Search is your friend

1) If only it were that simple.
2) Rotate the cam magnet 90* advanced, switch the triggers on the coilpack, over all the injectors down one, making #4 the new #1. Other than that, no.
3) Sure.
4) Head yes, oilpan no.
5) the passenger side motor mount has to be fabricated, and a 2.4L oilpan has to be modified.
