Well, since this is catching on, is there any interest in a group buy?

Is that the high performance trans axle which uses WD-40 synthetic oil for huge performance gains?

That transaxle looks so cozy snuggled in all those blankets in the frunk! I'll bet it was a spill-free Transaxle run, which is almost as sweet as a spill-free Starbucks run, but I digress..

It looks like a good install, but the 4 on the rear could use a little work

That sucker (non-synchro tranny) weighed 130 lbs when I pulled it out of there. No wonder the front ends on the Carrera 4s are so planted. After this minor excursion into 4WD country, i'm back solidly into the world of 2WD! (And I pulled the tape off, too).

Looks like there's room to toss a 2-speed transfer case up there as well. A Carrera trail crawler. Be the first on your block. Kewl...

From the seat of the pants dyno, it feels like about 124 hp more than my stock Carrera S....

I wonder if they've got one that will fit a Seal Grey Cab?
