I've got the possibility to buy an Evo 5 turbo, exhaust and intake manifolds, will the manifolds will fit my 1G DSM engine?
Any experiences with this manifolds? since the intake is right on the side we need for a RWD 4G63.
If the manifolds doesn't fit i'll get just the turbo, any comments?
Cheers.

The Evo 4+ manifold and turbo has been used on DSM motors in the past. The most vivid memory I have was Dentsport Garage's. They had to use 2x 1/2" flanges to space the compressor housing far enough to clear the balance shaft buldge in the block. I think they had to move the Alternator and power steering pump too.
I have no clue about the intake manifold though.
My opinion: You'll spend more money making the stuff that was given to you work, than you would just buying a new new turbo that would bolt on.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
