Default Bored and thinking wildy!!!

One of my cousins has a brand new rdx that got totalled and I was thinking damn.How possible would it be to do a 2.3 liter turbo k swap, along with the sh- awd that the car is equipped with.I read somewhere that 45% of that drivetrain is transferred to that rear under hard acceleration from a dead stop(Perfect for drag racing) and then it transfers back to 80 or 90% front and 10% rear once the vehicle is in the mid to top end rpm range. Not to mention the vehicle is manufactured turbo charged so the compression ratio etc is perfect. Any thoughts comments?insults on how a set up like this would perform on the drag strip? I know someone will do some crazy sh&* like this sometime in the future.

It's been talked about so many times it's not funny. It won't work unless you cut and weld and start from scratch.

as far as the drive shaft welding or are your reffering to the rear axle and welding that involves that?

If you are asking this then you are not qualified to do it.
