Yeah, I saw that speed sensor, but there is someone in the UK developing a bolt on solution which should be easier for me to get hold of and cheaper...

I'm going to use the stock AT trans for the beginning and maybe uprate to a pro street version a bit later on. I don't really drive that hard in reality!

At the moment my plans are: reverse rear engine cradle and use a 'berg' style mid mount, no front mount. That will get the engine comfortably under the body. I'll make up my own trapeze style bar at the back, I'm concerned a stock one wouldn't accomodate the turbo. Stock ECU, I was going to use Microtech but support is very limited for me in UK. Now my main problem is finding a suitable loom! I'll probably shorten the sump about 30mm

Randy: you seem to go just a bit further than me! I didn't want the hassles of using a newer engine wiht all the immobiliser stuff and variable cam stuff, 260bhp should be enough... I'd love to see some pics of your projects if you have any!
