          If a "1" would be putting a new B8 SOHC in, then the BP would be a "2"... If you ask me...

            Depends if your going to swap AT to MT with the BP swap.....

            BP swap on your existing SOHC tranny...... probably a 2 to a 3 varying with experiece and tool available.

            BP swap w/ MT conversion..... 5.
            The T3 BP MX-3 conversion has begun, and is taking forever & will kill me.

                yours wasn't auto was it?

                if so since yours is a 2nd gen, it gets a 7 b/c even fewer ppl have tried swapping one of those.

                        Hell yeah it was. Why do you think I'm swapping pedals, and shifters, etc.

                        BTW, OCD-SPEED already did this swap, but he used an F-series box. I'm using the "uber" G-series tranny. Now that's a first.

                            When I asked if I could do that, people told me that it would be extremely unwise (mating a BP to an automatic transmission). Just a waste. :p:
