    It took us a long time lol. About 8-9 months. So much crap we ended up needing that Will had to get extra. If you try to do this swap remember to factor in all the money youll need for everything! Theres a lot extra you need. New front cross member, gas tank, etc. ect,.

    Technically tons of people do this swap....but they convert to single turbo, so yeah this is unique for being the only full factory twin turbo to stay twin in an lhd car. Like will said there are still a few kinks to be worked out but for the most part, its done. Its been 8-9 months in the making, many long weekends and some bitchin problems, but everything works out in the end!
