Hi Im VueWithHids i own a 2008 saturn vue with awd. Im currently adding alot of custom accessories to my ride. I have custom made LED lightbar brackets for my roof mounted 50" lightbar, Hid Headlights, 2 12" kicker subwoofers, and a cherry bomb m80 exhaust. I have a long list of future plans including Turbos, bodykit, and nitrous oxide. Join me as i tackle the problem of fabricating things that were never meant to be in a Vue. Thanks.

Welcome.

There are some Modification type categories on the forum.

Would be cool if you start a thread in one and document all of your mods.

so as far as a turbo goes im thinking of replacing the engine and transmission with something with a little more power maybe a rotary or something along those lines. Also im thinking about converting it to rwd. However with the new engine i will have to remove a lot of the fenders and front body to fit a new engine it will be hard but in the end it will be one of a kind.

That's true. Why not try to find a wrecked Redline and use that power train? They're pretty damned fast.
