How hard is it to do a AWD conversion on an old mirage like that?

Oh, and, another vote for *not* painting it yellow.

yea it was alot of work now im injured because of it haha, its plenty fast, the car is light. stock wieght is 2300, add about 300 for the engine tranny and the rear subframe and you are looking at around 2600. stock engine puts out around 255 i do believe. so it should be pushing out alittle more due to the exhaust, opened up the air flow a little bit and up the boost a little also. my friend has a new 05 gt we went from like 60-100 but by the time he started to honk i should have been in 3rd but i was in 4th so he got a head but i caught up to him then we stopped, and that was running at 12 psi.
