I'd certainly be willing to do some eco-modding, insomuch as it will be a compliment to the other mods. Namely, those modifications that increase overall performance

Actually, after doing some research, I'm on the fence about a lightweight flywheel. Being that I would prioritize comfort over performance, I'm concerned that the potential detriments to driveability...

The 20V you do have to rev out to get going from what I've read, but you have to do that to some extent with the 7A anyway.

Yeah, my motor mounts were probably just shot, that's why I would get shaking at idle. I guess some of that is just inevitable from an inline 4 though.

Those seats are nice, and I love the direct fit. I'd certainly remove the rear seats completely; nobody I know is small enough to fit in them anyway.

Awesome, thank you for the input.

Now I get it...I was under the assumption that the sensor was welded onto the flange. If it's just threaded into the flange then looks like it's just a straight conversion from a 95 to 96 exhaust. ...

Are you sure the O2 sensor will fit both setups? I don't think the OBDI sensor has any threading to fit the OBDII style exhaust.

That's fantastic information. So when you say no resonator or cat, you mean as part of the manifold? That is, the 95 models have an extra cat attached to the manifold before the downpipe?

What type of downstream O2 sensor is on the exhaust? Is it a screw-in type? I noticed the exhaust setup for 95 and 96 can be slightly different, even if they're both 7a's .
