You will need a few things.

Cossie engine + T5 gearbox
ECU + Loom
Slight mod of transmission tunnel
Modified propshaft
Bigger brakes
Bigger radiator
Intercooler
Modified Fuel Tank (i still have mine)

And a few other bits like uprated bushes, suspension etc

Heres a pic of my old one.



And after i crashed it



Hope this helps

Steve.
