So I'm looking at a ‘83 Lebaron, and have some questions about that I4 engine.
1) Is there a significant difference in power between the 2.2 liter inline 4 from Chrysler and the 2.6 liter Mistubishi? Would I notice the difference in power?
2) Is one more reliable than the other?
3) If the majority of my driving is pretty mellow city street driving with the occasional highway excurison will I be cursing myself for not looking for the extra power the later turbos offered? It seems like if I'm doing mostly drives around town which moves slow the turbo wouldn't really even have a chance to kick in...or am I wrong about how the turbo works?
4) Is the turbo 4 cylinder significanly more complicated, as in, am I likely to have more mechanical troubles with the turbo over the 2.2 or 2.6 liter I4 engines?
5) When I have an inspection on the car done, what issues should I have the mechanic/inspector look for with the I4 engines (i.e are they known for timing belt issues)?

Thanks for any help/advice you may have.
