I got into a little debate earlier this moring during Biology about which is the better engine, the 2.0 or the 2.4. I drive a 93 eclipse GS and personaly I think that is the better one. He did drive a 01 eclipse with the 2.4 before he was hit in the side which totaled his car. He said if the 2.0s are so much better than why did they stop putting them in the new eclipse. But I know that I am right about this what do yall think??

they are both slow... what is there to debate about?  we all know the 4g63t is a bad @$$ motor, and if you drop the 4g64 2.4l crank in it and stroke it, that it makes it even better.   so what is the real question here?

In reality, those motors suited each car just right for what they are, N/A motors.  The reason the 2.4 was put into the 3g Eclipse instead of the 2.0 N/A motor is because they are heavier.  Power increases was also a reason the 2.4 was put into the car instead of the 2.0.  Why do you think that the 2.4L was put into n/a Spyders and not the 2.0L? <--2G
Which one is faster?  I would rate them close to the same.

Well the 4g63 is definetly the more potential engine (why do you think they have it in the evo ) But like silver said, its what fit the car. And they stopped putting the turbo engines in the eclipses because they didnt get amazing sales with the 2g turbos and they got away from that, now the evo is the fast car, so they dont want to make another turbo fast car to compete. Why compete against yourself?

Now if you look at the cost in building each up. He definetly wins there because i think the internals on the 3g GS can actually handle 10-15psi from what i understand. Whereas your 4g63 NT will not handle anything. You would need to completely change out the internals to turbo it. So there is where he wins

But you also have to think that poeple are starting to put the 4g64 into there evo's. with minor or major work done on the internals depends on what there doing. But the 4g64 has more torque than the 4g63. Mix the 2 and you have a monster being born.

it's b/c it's 2.4 lol it basically becomes a stroker motor for quicker spool time.
