Hi Sifus and fellow Brothers,

I need a solid advice from you guys, i have a friend who wants to swap his EVO 3 Turbo engine with mine. I own putra 1.8 standard engine.

So, whats the rate like on workmanship to replace gearbox and swapping engine?

Im new to this turbo thing, i think i'll be fun to try it out. What should i consider to look closely at a friend's engine. Should i overhauled it before everything?

Guys, thanks in advance for the inputs. .

i'm no sifu especially in mitsu but i believe this is quite general. labour will vary from 1k-1.5k... and maybe more.

it would be wise then upon swapping, u do the necessary replacement of all the wear/tear parts such as timing belt(all the belts la), engine oil, gear box oil etc. (extra cost)

if u have the extra budget, overhauling it would be ideal, but alot of ppl dont do it cuz the price of overhauling can vary... depending on whats needed to be replaced...
