I am thinking of a Turbo Charge Kit for my 4G18 GLX any links local or foreign? Plus I need a couple other things... Side skirts, Front and Rear Bumber and a Tranny cooler...

to turbo charge the 4g18 u will need to:-
sell that engine and and cvt tranny, buy and install ah turbo engine. 4g93t and box is a nice upgrade more power, easier to make power, cheaper in the long run, better cooling system, would last longer, u can run more boost safer.

BELLA @ 682-7179 for the body parts... External Tranny cooler u should get @ any good parts store.

You could go with 4G93T (1.8L DOHC Turbo) as SCHOLARS said, but u'll need fabrication to mount engine n gearbox?

SCHOLARS, stop misleading... only thing have to change is the CVT. Boost the 4g18 and be unique. Only thing is you have to gather all the parts unless you have millions to spend on the RPW kit.

4g18 is quite similar to the 4g15 so check this thread:

4G93T makes sense to me... Not too sure about the fabrication bit (or why) what is the next engine up from mine that would fit w/o fabrication preferably DOHC and Turbo Charged...

4G93T GDI direct bolt up

The 4G93T GSR would not bolt up direct @ present mounting points as its for a different chassis! So u would need to fabricate new mounting points (small thing).

blazing this is my view. u will spend ah good amount of money turboing that 4g18 with running the risk of distroying the engine trying to make the power. the cooling system of the engine is not efficient 4 turbo cuz ports on ah turbo engine is usually bigger. was is the sense turboing that engine cuz to get the performance u want it will break down after a while, so save money by upgrading to ah turbo engine which will be more efficient. cuz to turbo an engine properly will run u over $10000 on parts and electronics, and then will u like what u get? after u spend that money ah man like me with ah 4g92 mivec come and cut your arse and spend less money at the same time it will hurt your ego. believe me take front before front take u, buy ah turbo engine and modify the crap out of it. and dont study them men, cuz them have d same 4g18 engine and want to turbo but fraid so they will wait till ah next man try it and if he fail them dont have to spend d money. nothing wrong with experimenting or trying something but i personally dont have the money to waste that is y i take advice from other tuners who been there done that.

^^ very true but he asked about turboing his perfectly fine 4g18 which can be done successfully, not a conversion. While you may see it as a waste and just drop in an engine, others may want to be unique. To each his own.
