    yyeeaahh...i think the mounting points, as well as the wiring harness, need to be switched out...but ^^^ he's the guys to ask, since he's done it at least once.

    Wouldn't be that bad. You'll need custom mounts, both harnesses for the wiring, custom intercooler setup, custom exhaust, and maybe custom halfshafts.
