Have fun and be safe. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Did you have to cut any parts or drill holes to make it work? Do you still have your P/S and A/C?? Awesome man.! i didnt cut any wires till after the swap was completed and running. and i only cut out the fuel pump relay... and a total of 2 holes were drilled. didnt get my hands on the a/s or ps parts yet so there still not 100% i plan on getting them working thou too. the power different from the 7a to the 3s is day and night. im sure i dont have to tell anyone that. it boosts very smooth and strong. the car has torque period. tidy up a few more things and i know theres a very small margin of cars on the roads around here that can touch it. and even than they'll be extremely nervious. the car is scary fast.
