ok so im finally doing the swap lol so basically im going through a parts list of things required for the swap and things ill do just for fun.







ok so my car is a s5 with the full s5 t2 drivetrain



things im buying for the swap







Motor (s5 t2 from Rotary Shack, any comments on them??)



ecu (stock jdm ecu)



fmic core - Trust (where i can i buy a trust core??????!!)



fmic pipe work (local shop)



exhuast (apexi GT single exit exhuast)



downpipe (some help here?)



greddy profec s (how do you like this as compared to the profec B?)



and some new wheels and tires... (cheapos for now, saving for volk gtu's *uber drool*)









so far thats all i can think of.... i probably left some **** off so throw it out if you remember something i dont or something i forgot to add on there.





also what do i need to remove to throw a FMIC up there? and i saw rotary performance has the greddy TB elbow for like 100 bucks.





ok.... so i believe thats it let me know what i might encounter as far as problems go. i have a team of us pretty experienced rotarians lol so im confident in our abilities just putting together this damn list of crap and ordering it

i remember something else lol a boost guage hehe any suggestions on that?

Rob x-7 06-13-2005 06:56 PM

just curious how much the engine is and if it included the ECU?

CrassFC3S 06-13-2005 07:44 PM

1200 for the s5, a little steep but its better than getting screwed by some unknown company, no ecu included but he is sourcing one for me. the owner robert seems like a super super cool guy

CrassFC3S 06-13-2005 08:15 PM

what about the dash nonsense.... if i run an aftermarket boost guage will all the other guages still work? lol

drftk1d 06-14-2005 01:45 PM

unless its wired (plumbed? w/e) wrong. yes

CrassFC3S 06-15-2005 12:24 AM

hehe well i just read my last statement it made me sound stupid, i meant ill run an after market boost guage but aside from that i shouldnt encouter any problems with the stock gauges.. anyways so it looks like im good to go =D
