I've searched and didn't find too many details. I was hoping to find out what things people ran into and what they rerouted and such. Thanks

we did one to the Evom Blue car.. it's pretty easy only need to extend one wire for the oil pressure sensor which is moved on the 9, and replace one of the plugs for the trans harness.
