          Well I ended up blowing apart the center differential on the stock BF awd transmission which started the BP swap.

            brought the car to a local tuning shop for the downpipe, full 3'' exhaust from the turbo back and EMS standalone, check out this link for some pics on thier website






            ended up using 4 corvette coils to send the spark
