Hopefully by the end of the week ill start getting all the parts in. What i need to make sure of is i have everything to do the swap. ive read the stuff thats required but having someone actully verifiy it would be a big help.

I have
T2 engine with intercooler
T2 ECU
T2 tranny
T2 flywheel
T2 clutch
T2 wiring harness
Custom drive shaft T2 to na (see bottom please)

Am i missing anything else to do this swap?


( im looking for that T2 tranny to NA custom drive shaft but i cant remmber the company that makes it, can someone post the name of the company that makes it?)

im not totally positive absolutly nessicary but how about a t2 radiator or aftermarket radiator. What horse power are you looking for if your going to keep the stock t2 horsepower for a while you might want to use the na trans and na rear till you can afford the whole t2 drive train. thats probably what ill be doing once i have the money, damn people selling fuel systems and clutches for cheap got me bankrupt it was just to good to pass by. o yea and how about the engine mounts dont you need custom engine mounts, or at least t2 engine mount. i pretty sure you need the t2 tranny mount as well.

yeah im going to keep it stock for a while, paying for all this is going to make me broke. so even the thought of moding wont be possiable for atleast a few months.


Wont the N/A radiator be ok? Since its a TMIC it wont need to be around the radiator.

o not trying to jack the thread but using the t2 trans with the custom drive shaft does anyone know about how much the na rear end will hold? ive heard the na trans shouldnt go over 200hp but will the rear end even support over that if you use the custom driveshaft?

CrypticApathy

oo thats a good question.

if my memory is corecct i think people that road race have NA engines with 250hp with NA rear end.

The rearend i have now should be able to hold the stock s4 without a problem. Im probally puting out that much now or close to it. and havnt had the problem.

Phantomkid

i dont know if the turbo radiator will cool the engine better. or if there even different im sure someone else knows. but one other thing i can add if your going to keep the top mount intercooler expect to pay a good 300 bucks for a turbo hood. Yea all this stuff will make you broke damn i wish i was rich, that would be nice.

or if ya wanna do it the ghetto way cut a hole in the hood and buy a stupid bolt on hoodscoop that will serve til u can afford FMIC.
