It's April 10th this year. I'm going to a pre-meet, as well as the show just to check it out. I'm not entering my SVO because it's not the greatest looking right now, but I'll be there jus to enjoy the sights.

The 94 rear is definitely wider, it will also fuck with what wheels you can go with especially anything over 8". Its what I have in my car and a 9" rear requires a very rare and hard to find 36mm offset to fit without rubbing, 10"is even more difficult.

The Turbo coupe rear is a direct bolt in, same width and all, but im not sure that the SVO will put down enough torque to blow the factory 7.5, unless you're getting yhe rear for a steal then i'd hold off.

Yea that's what i had been told that it's direct bolt in. I've already blown one up, so i figured I'd be safe and go ahead and go with a 8.8. I found a pretty good deal on one with 3.73s for 200obo. Dude told me if I come pick it up He'll do $150. I thought it was a pretty good deal.

I blew the rear end when my SVO was stock, running 12lbs of boost. Now I'll have a t3/t4 turbo, full 3 inch ehxaust from downpipe back, bigger injectors, rising rate FPR, better fuel pump, etc. Just wanna be safe lol.

Not a power mod but more of a cosmetic one.

I painted the plastic base, added a new shift boot with perforated leather and lowered the shifter down about a 1/4 inch. Now the leather goes all the way up to the shifter knob and stays there.

Next thing on the list is a vinyl wrap with a skull caddy logo on the fender and hood and the rest of the car matte black

This is the logo

That's pretty badass looking, and subtle enough to be sort of unnoticable unless someone takes a second look.
