Interesting that you are opting to reverse back into the previous generation Galant VR4's engine.  My guess is it would be much easier to build more power in the long run for a 4G63 engine.

Personally I didn't see nothing bad about the twin turbo 2.0L V6, except for the fact that its an import and getting parts and other aftermarket performance mod is pretty expensive and hard to get.
