Gus 5 Report post Posted August 25, 2006 do it! else im happy to swap cash + my 2.7 bits. PM me if your keen..i dead am in all seriousness, supercharging would be easier for the m50...they are a lot bigger to fit in the bay...the m/s 50 swaps ive seen all seem pretty cramped around the RHD steering rack area with N/a headers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
