out of interest, what sort of power are you hoping for after all mods, did i hear someone here mention 350+ bhp, if this is true are you going for an 4WD conversion??

Dwayne said he would be running low boost for a while - so it'll probably be more like 300BHP I would imagine. A 4WD drivetrain though is gonna be another story though - theres no way it'll fit the way the current FTO chassis is set up. You'd basically have to mod an FTO shell onto an EVO drivetrain to make this work I'd imagine - another collosal job.

I presume an LSD is on the cards Dwayne to try and get some of that power on the tarmac?

I'd really like to see this machine when finished.
