RE: fwd to awd conversion
I get ALL my performance parts from those guys. My Blinker fluid, Adjustable Power-Bands, Cross-Drilled Brake Lines, and Engine Oil Bypass Kit ALL came from there. When I can free up some more funds I'm getting the Radiator Insulation kit.

Been unsatisfied with the monster torque steer in your front wheel drive luxury car? Been annoyed by the rear end of your new high powered sports car sliding out in the rain and snow? Jealous of those folks with the big spoilers and pink performance parts? Let's face it: Only AWD cars have good handling. (Just ask anyone with an AWD performance vehicle.) To overcome the shortcomings of many otherwise nice vehicles, KaleCoAuto has developed this system! The lug-pulleys bolt directly to the wheel studs! If you can change a tire, you can install this kit. Please refrain from making left or right turns once this kit is installed. To enjoy the added handling benefits of AWD with this kit, is important that the steering wheel remains perfectly centered!

ROFL - I'm like WTF??? The I saw the phrase you should not make left or right turns after installation... and then I knew - I had to have it! Though I hear ECS Tuning has a cheaper knock-off version...

RE: fwd to awd conversion
I hear that the AWD conversion is so popular, that some high up congressman is trying to pass a bill through the transportation department to construct a highway system across America that is absolutely all straightaways. The idea is there will be turntables at intersections to get you going in the right direction. I am sure due to cost constraints they will ditch the turntables andjust make a lane for backing up to get back to wherever you came from.
Funny thing is, I saw this idea in smaller form on the Today show, where there is a parking garage in NYC that has a platform you park your car on and the machinery whisks it away on rollers, liftsand turntables and parks it in a spot, then brings it back when you are ready to leave. Comepletely untouched by human hands. As Matt Lauer asked, what happens if something goes wrong? And like him, I don't wanna know.
