I had an a4, so dunno if this is gonna be diofferent for you but my stock tq arm was mounted on the tranny and there is no spot to mount it on the th400, so i had to get a body mount tq arm with the seperate crossmember frrom spohn.

I'm in the process of this swap myself. I have the tranny, driveshaft and converter, and a bmr trans crossmember, with the tq arm relocation. I have yet to get the tranny cooler, shifter, 6AN lines for the cooler, a trans temp guage, and I think that's it. Oh, and a bmr stock style tq arm and driveshaft loop, as I am going to remove the spohn one I am running, the ground clearance issue is driving me nuts. After that, I should have everything.


Anyone know... if I don't hook up the speedo ( as I have yet to see one that actually reads roght and isn't putting MAD mileage on the car that is false ) will the abs/tcs/cruise still work? If not, then it's all gonna come out that's fine, just wanna know.

Thanks.

If the PCM does not know how fast you are going it is gonna be hard for all of the stuff you mentioned to work.
