FWD to AWD

[1gentalonfan]

just purely out of curiosity would it be at all possible to convert a FWD turbo to an AWD

Yes it can. This has been discussed many many times!! Try doing a little research before you open new topics!
Here is what typing "awd conversion" came up with in 1 second in the search engine.

I just finished my awd swap yesterday, so far everything is running great. Haven't had a chance to launch it though because it's been raining.

WWW.TEAM-TRINITY.COM it was finished and completed by some of us (yea my newb ass helped out some too). done on a '97 spyder (i believe thats the year).

Hey, your name and profile implies that you have a 1G...

If so, then no... the AWD conversion would require extensive work and the fabrication of many parts. The 1G's don't have the drive shaft tunnel. The 2G's do, and therefore can perform the conversion... I've already researched this, since I had a 1G AWD donor car and a 1G FWD that was perfect...

Here's the article for the 2G... http://www.automotivearticles.com/AWD_Conversion.shtml

You can see that they have the tunnel... look under your 1G, we do not

Yeah I Figured 2g Due To The 2g Posted In The Title Lol. N/t 1g Awd Would Be Pointless Imo
