not as easy as it was supposed to be, looks like you need to grind the gearbox housing down, remake the gearbox linkage bracket, hope it fits, remake a TIP for it, get it mapped etc etc etc... just hope its not your daily driver

lol, it is my daily driver, i thought the fitment issues were with the 2wd 6 speed cars? maybe im wrong,

so, where do i look for a intake pipe to fit and airfilter, do atp not do them, i thought you just modified the forge tip?

i thought that the case until

The Eliminators are a total b!tch to fit. They don't go in well with the quattro transmission and six speed box. There's a bit of modifying of the gear linkage to be done, and it needed a custom TIP and airfilter. The standard injectors couldn't handle the power, so I've put in 550cc ATP items with the correct spray pattern, and the N75 was hopeless at delivering the boost so I've gone for an Apexi AVC-R controller. One thing that had been putting me off for ages was the lack of decent manifold. Not a problem really, it gets the power on the standard mani no problem. Infact Jim has had to limit the power just to keep the internals safe.
