Same fitting kit, but there are a few differences with the gearbox. You need to get the plate which converts the gearbox from 4x4 to 2 wd and I think you need a new gearbox mount too... Look on PVD's website ocs they got detailed info on what comes in the fitting kits....

alls you will need if your using your old F20 is the loom, ecu, intercooler, you'll need to change the downpipe (probs get one fabricated from a local garage or something).

And some extra £££'s for the hike in insurance!

The MPI fuel pump would do the job, but a lot of people upgrade to something a bit more meaty as you really really don't want it running lean.
