plan on making small domes to cover the timming covers shouldent look to bad when im done.

What about using the bug@5speed nosecone on the trans? That should move it far enough to get things under the bodywork without cutting the torsion bar housing...

i have the stock 911 nose cone milled down and welded up i halve about a half of an inch more that the trans can move forward but then i will have to remake all of my mounts plus relocate my slave cylender wich i have mounted between the frame horn and the gear box so i ill deal with a little body work should be fun to make look good.

some more updates finaly found my camara to take some more recent pics

turbo and intercooler mocked up for the first time

Progress is good!

Is that a wrx intercooler? If it is and you're planning on more boost than stock I'd consider getting an STi or Perrin one. Not only from a cooling perspective but also flow, the stock wrx one I believe is a little restrictive at higher boost numbers (15+).

Cool swap. Looking good so far.

going to keep the boost close to stock for now so that should do at the moment will upgrade later

looking good! that should be loads of fun when you get done, how much heavier is the suby engine than a vw engine?
