You should have no trouble finding performance parts for a Mitsubishi 3.0L V6 as it was also used in the 3000GT and Stealth.
But how much do they have in common? I asked once about the possibility of putting a 3000GT twin turbo engine in a caravan and was informed that the engine rotates the opposite direction. I'd be curious too...my 92 is set to roll over 181k, it could use some boost in power in its old age... :-)
In my short travels around the internet, I've seen lots done with the
4-cylinder Dodge turbo's, but nothing with the 3.0 v6. The ones I really love are the guys with the turbo minivans outrunning Camaro's, Corvette's and the like...Wesley
that would be a site to see, mini van VS camaro....
My v6 only has 82k on it and its still got plenty of pep as it is I've outran the local showoffs at least once in their new camaros with the
2.8.... I just figured it would be neat to soup it up a little more, it would be odd having a sedan thats really fast to me especially this model of car.Here you go!

I've had a few of the 2.5/2.2 turbo engines, I had a sundance, I never had so much trouble in my life, the engine lasted till it hit about 80k and the head gasket blew and the engine locked up
All varieties of the 3.0L V6s have a lot in common. All of them turn in the same direction, differences in the transaxles would cause the engine to be reversed in the engine bay. What that probably means is you can't drop in a Mitsubishi transaxle.
The turbo V6 has four-bolt mains, while the rest have two-bolt mains. If you want to have a DOHC twin turbo, you will need to get a four-bolt block, then you're good for 450 HP or more.
