had to wire up an EA Style 4 speed auto computer, which the BF motor running coil packs doesn't give off a tacho feed, The BF cluster etc is all data, Just needed to wire in a rpm signal converter inline with the coils main power wire which then gives out an rpm signal that i wired to the Auto ecu and the dash so the tacho works. It works out well because the EA auto computers have a fairly hardish shift program so it workes well with a motor putting out alot more then an EB motor. With a manual i rekon this thing will have 170+ kw at the wheels.

Do you want to turbo this car or leave it N/A??? Ive heard that high 190s rwkw is achievable with a 6tb intake and some mild head work.

Save it up man, Ive accepted 2 deposits already. Both people pulled out because they couldn't afford it. In that time I had someone with the money wanting to buy it and I lost that buyer. So yeah how long you rekon you would take to save it.
