That's true, I didn't think of that even though, that would be my normal way of thinking, lol.

I believe you need a 2g head for a 2g car. Check this out bro.

Yeah, it cost that much for someone to do the work and to come from a shop like Slowboy, lol. I'm still searching though, lol.

Holy crap, that was a tough search. "The site" has been down for an upgrade this past weekend and not all the info has been moved to the new server and I had a hell of time trying to find "backdoors" to this link!
...but I found it, wooo hooo, lol.
Anyway, here it is.

Here's another link to a 2.4 swap. This one was easier to find for some reason.

Odd that it allows the first part of the link. Anyway...
I hope that helped in your decision or at least gave you more options for your car. I personally would drop a 4g63 head (and everything else that's needed of course), and convert to AWD.
A 2.4L AWD Turbo Spyder....badass vert!

doing some more reading , do i have this correct ?
all i have to do is change my pistons plug off a few holes and my bottom end is done ?

so for about 400 bucks "in parts" the bottom end of my motor would be ready ?

I believe your $2-$3k estimate is more obtainable for a total motor if not for less $. If it's done the DIY way :D

after i am done of the 2.4 vert.. to go AWD i would just need a gas tank rear drivetrain and a transfer case ? or do i have to swap out the tranny i have now?

whats your thoughts on me finding a wreaked tsi talon and swaping the whole drive train motor tranny out ?

i might look around for one of these b4 i start with the 2.4 , if i have no luck i will just start buying one part at a time for the 2.4 vert

i see someone on here has a head for sale , i am gonna dig up the the thread and maybe you can tell me if its what i need for a head, if it is i will buy it in a few weeks ;)
