I would have to agree with AirWolf if you have extra money laying around. With labor and all parts, theres a service out of Pennsylvania that will do a complete SRT-4 swap for $5,500.

The problem with the turbo company is that Im all the way in Seattle.

Believe me, Id love to do it, but Im gonna play the whole turbo thing by ear for the moment.

Would an automatic be really that fun turboed, anyway?

Heres a basic list of parts you'll be looking to buy, most of them will be used, becuase new parts will cost A LOT of money...transmission (3.55 or 3.94), modular clutch, passenger side axle, clutch master and slave cylinder, shifter cables and clips, tranny side motor mount from a manual transmission 2nd gen, MTX PCM from your year car, shifter and shifter base, clutch and brake pedal assembly from a 2nd gen.
Ok as most know i lost a tranny again..... so i have now decided that My ATX cannot take the abuse i put it thru so i am gunna switch to a MTX...... witch means in turn i am gunna have alot of questions. (2003 SE)
1. What year Tranny's can i use?
2. Is thier any custom fabrication that has to be done?
3. For the 2003 i will have a Hydro Cluch correct?
4. Who's gunna come help? (just playin!!)
