T hat’s an interesting build.

I know the article says it’s an M88, but I cant help but wonder if it’s actually an S38. They look and perform virtually identically. But one is much easier to get a hold of. The S38 would also likely be in a better setup already for an easier FR swap.

Maaaaybe, but the M88 is from the M1. So it would cost much more probably and there’s no clear benefit in getting the M88. There might even be a disadvantage. The accessories  might not be ideal for an FR car.

hadn’t thought of the accessories side of things, saying that, your train of logic makes more sense now
