There are a few members who are experimenting with the GT-S motor in a Dodge
Colt (early nineties) since they fit.

Subject: Re: DML: GS-T Eclipse
Whadaya mean it didn't have the power of what came after it ?
The 95-99 Turbo's had 210 horses and the 2000+ GT V6 only had 205.
2 less cylinders + 1 turbo = 5 horses more. And thats stock to stock. It is
much easier to squeeze more horses out of the turbo.
Only reason I traded mine in on the truck was I needed to haul my bike and
jetski.
Damn, I'm probably gonna get shot for sayin that ;) LOL
