i have a genuine sigma turbo with a starion motor in it it has cordia inlet manifold and computer i have a starion turbo manifold to go on it does anyone no if the cordia computer will be different to the starion 1 should i leave it with the cordia setup on it and i also need to hook up the pollution gear so does anyone have any diagrams as to where it all goes any help will be much appreciated thanks

The motor numbers are pretty similar, but i'd say there'd some differences
2L Starion 4G63
2L Cordia G63BT
you couldn't use a 2L cordia engine in a starion right?

The cordia inlet manifold wouldn't fit onto a starion engine would it?

Nearly all Cordias are 4G62... They are also a Sirius motor and they look almost exactly like a Starion motor facing the wrong way. The main difference is that the turbo is a Low mount and it has a smaller capacity, 1.8. The inlet manifold looks the same.

wat setup do you think would go better the cordia or the starion the motor has had a bit of work done to it and its running a TO3

Read what was said previously. The Starion is a 2.0 so the extra 200cc of displacement is going to make a difference, probably more so in spooling of the t03.

Or you could go muti point and never look back :P
Didn't the cordia come out with a SOHC 2L as well as the 1.8L?

you will have to use the computer that goes with the injection as the FWD and RWD are different(unless it's a late model starion.)
i have just finished putting a FWD 4g63t into my car, but i can't help with the pollution stuff cause neither my car or engine had any of this stuff.

Well i'm probably not the best person to explains this to you but i can show you pix LOL
Theres Three Types
This ones from a magna(Cheap)
This ones from a L300 mitisi Van(Cheaper)
And Custom
(leg+arm)
The Way i under stand it is the Magna one is better for intercooler piping and looks, but takes abit of work to fit and The L300 van one is pretty much bolt on.
You'll need to run after market computers on these type of set ups though.
Check this out for info on the L300 MPI

Thats a Sonata manifold. Magna manifold won't fit a 4G63.

how much work is involved in putting the sonata manifold on and what about the pollution on it and what air flow meter does it use does it have 1

To get the sonata manifold you have to move the tb to the other end and run a raditor hose to the end of the manifold. As you'll need to run an aftermarket computer you wont have to worry about air flow meters and just use the map sensor on the aftermarket computer.
