Exactly what i was looking for , I have heard things here and there about the AWD conv not being possible with that year, but you have brought new hope! Job well done man!

When you get a chance to really test it, How is performance, any loss? I am sure it is hard to tell with the TT/rebuild.
I am thinking since i have the N/A and non awd, that i might be better off just going out and finding a stock awd......

Thanks guys! The AWD does slow it down a little as in hwy pulls but with the LSD and AWD on waste gate pressure I couldn't get it to spin in the rain. It really hooks up for sure. When it was FWD 10:1 TT it really was fast as hell on the hwy but now that I'm 8:1 I'll make up with for it with higher boost.

Since I've had it on the road I've had it on the dragon (did great) and the dyno. When I had it on the dyno it put down 292 on just 9-10psi. I was happy with that and started turning up the boost a little but that's where the fun ended with the LMI turbos. On the 2nd pull they (it) blew. Fun's over! Not that I was surprised but it still was a bummer.

Green, I am considering doing a TT conversion. I just read that you were running on a 10:1, which turbos? How much boost? I have read multiple posts about this but just wanted another person that has done it's response.
Maybe I should start a AWD parts list and do it myself as you have.

Thanks and great job.
