It`s possible ,but its so much work and money.
You`re a whole lot cheaper and faster to fit a rs2k in there and tune that baby up to a 2300 for example.

Yep Tomcats right you will be spending thousands and would have to replace nearly everything from the st 170 where as a rs2000 conversion would cost less and the power is near enough the same.
