Hi all I am knew here but I have a couple of ?
first of all My 99 SC1 eats up oil, when running if i put my hand over the oil cap hole i feel alot of air pushing out and I was wondering if that means i need to replace the piston rings or if there is a bigger issue. I dont want to get rid of her cause i like 2 door coupes and sats are a nice looking car.

second can a newer engine fit under the hood i was thinking about getting a newer turbo.

thanks for the help.

P.S. another problem with spinning the tires is replacing them so often.

what do you mean by newer engine? Like a the ones found in an ION? If so; the answer is yes. However it would cost a lot of money. From what has been discussed here and on other boards, the cost of the swap may not be worth the gains you get from an ION Motor.

ok thank you for for that info. Now another ? for you.
I have an eagle talon that the body is shot(got rearended) the motor is great turbo aswell. Do you think I could squeeze it under the hood using the tranny and drive drain frome the eagle?
