I heard the gas tank in FWD cars don't have the hump in it for the driveshaft, and the rear suspension is different..

Im going for the manual at the same time. I dont think I need the TCU. Do I?

As for the hump. Ive been under my car. It looks like the jjust forgot to put the AWD in. The "hump" runs all the why down the car. My main cosern is wether or no the exhaust will need to be re-bent. Does the AwD have independent rear suspention?

If you're converting to a manual trans you will not need the TCU.

The AWD version does have independent rear suspension.
