If you're going to tease us with 500+ whp, and then say this, you're downright cruel! If you're not going to keep a progress thread, at least keep up some good photo documentation for the process for us to enjoy once you are done with the swap. Please? Pretty pretty?
Don't worry... I know others will probably want to do this setup once we complete it and pull some crazy numbers. We will document it very thoroughly and I plan on putting together a pricelist so if anyone wants to do the same setup, they can pick the setup they want and send us their cars to built. Also... I am going to be selling my svt sideskirts and my rear bumper, so let me know if you want them. Chances are I'll post them on ebay, not sure yet. Have a good weekend!

Dean, best of luck with the project I'm sure it will be killer when you are finished with it  . I see that you are getting rid of the SVT rear and side skirts, I would suggest the 03 BMW 745Li rear bumper but I like having the only one  . As I always say seeing your Mystique really makes me regret getting rid of my Mystique. Aaron

I was just in the engine bay of my new parts car / playhouse, and there's not a whole lot of room in there. Are you gonna bang out some of the firewall? That thing bows way out.

It is highly likely, ok, a definate firewall mod will have to be made. i have a doghouse (engine cover) from a conversion van i could use in the car. lol, joking... it wont be that drastic.
