You will have to reinforce EVERYTHING in your car. Driveaxle, axles, your whole bottom end, your chassis, you will deffinetly need bigger brakes, which involves more fabrication... You are dreaming if you think u can drive that xa with so much horses without modifying everything else.. I am eventually doing a wrx sti swap into my xa.. thats in 2 years.. I will take 2 years to plan the swap, buy parts, build custom parts to reinforce the above listed parts, only then drop the engine in.
w/e.. good luck
again i realize the amount of modification, and thanks your very kind ...


i could go off about how your " sti swap into an xa" will be a dream and "its gonna be a whole friggin car swap"..

but you know what i'll take some consideration and think to myself that you might have knowledge (might being the keyword here) and say good luck with that..
