Thanx... at this point, outside will be standard... but not a 100% sleeper...
concerning the engine... first 300hp... later maybe 350 or 400, but not more... this conversion is quite expensive :-(

As mentioned before, I tried to measure it out and put everything in my CAD programm. In the end, I will have to wait for the rims, put them on and then we will see, how it will fit... maybe I will shorten to front... I have some solutions in my mind, but I hope to find one without modifying everything...

@Chris-r4f: Danke
BBS Rims are nuts but too expensive at this point. Lets first start with those wheels I bought and after I pass the TÜV, I can still think about to change them. With 5x112, I have plenty of choice 
But nevertheless: I still like those rims :-D

news... news... news...
Finally, I'm nearly finished with the welding stuff... I finished the rear strut top mountings und the rear beam where the diff is bolt on.
I also received some new rims... I took others as the first ones didn't fit... The new ones are alutec/Plix.
Further, I would like to thank Jens, Marcel and Stefan for their help!!!! Thanx alot!
I will keep you up to date...
