These are the questions I need answers to.

Everybody. Unfortunately nobody has the cash to claim it.

Unless someone knows the answer offhand as to whether the hydra will work with a 4.44, I'm going to search around and see if I can find out.

Also, IIRC, there's a place in Orlando that can tune a Hydra. I will double check though.

I think a hydra could be made to work with a stock TCU. There are only a few signals that go from the ECU to the TCU.

There is a place in Longwood that can tune Hydras.

I don't think that at that price it would come with the Hydra?!

Ah. Well. That sure would make things interesting.

So how did you get around the issues you mentioned above? (Axles, R160s)

I dunno what he did, but what I'd look into if you insist on keeping it auto is using a 4.44 trans, which you can find an R180 for (JDM Forester STi for example), and getting some axles that are made for high-hp STIs. Axles might need some modification, but I am sure that you could get some made that are just right. That would do it, and you might be able to do it with less.

Chatting with him on Nasioc, might be grabbing this for my '96, and thankfully it's only about 45 minutes from me and I was about to be doing a 6MT swap anyway so this will fit in perfectly. At least it will stay in an SVX and not end up in an impreza. This is the best way to replace the headgasket that went last month I feel.
