this may be in the wrong area but anyone here who have the AWD magna can you tell us if they can handle any power increase and what do they handle like .
i`m asking as i`m thinking about getting a new car and would like to get some info from owners of the actual cars not b/s from sales staff

I am an owner and am quite happy with the extras that I have got virtually for free. I wrangled a good deal and the RRP has only just reached what I goT mine for.
There was comments about the auto protecting the box and therefore there being a limit to the output of the engine that the drivetrain can take. BUT Mitsiman has made comments in the past of RPW doing many modifications for their future cars. Search through the topics and have a good read.
If you are interested, the a 2003 TJ ii Sports AWD in normal AUTO will beat a FWD maual TH with Lukey UltraFlow and K&N Panel Filter and a passanger by approximately 1 car length over 400m :badgrin:
It was you I raced JUT wasn't it? :slap:

but....
:poke: JUT (if it was you) were you asleep!?!? i'd really like to see an AWD beat a 3.5 manual 0-400m!!! i'm guessing JUT got a little trigger happy and spun half way down the track!!! :nuts:

Hey, well my dad has an AWD Verada, i drive it quite reguarly, it handles real nice both on road and off, though ive found it doesnt have the best clearance off raod, but the awd helps wen on slippery surfaces. The only thing i can find with them is that they seem to be a little slow of the line compared to an fwd magna.
