- Have You tried talking to the people at Rapido Group (XR4Ti performance
- specialists) who have developed a kit to do this. The only problem is
- they are not for the faint of pocket book. Their kit while very complete
- and well developed (includes transmission with correct ratios, bell
- housing, shift linkage, and etc) is expensive but the improvement it makes
- in the car is well worth the investment!
