So two seperate ECUs?
So what are you gonna do if ones spinning redline from losing traction and the other is still pulling at like 5k...?

Traction control, but honestly that point is so far down the road that I haven't gone into much detail about how to do it. I'll probably borrow a system from some car that's relatively similar in terms of weight, wheel/tire size, wheelbase, etc.
Initially it will just be a rear engine setup. Once I get all the kinks worked out with that I'll start on the twin engine setup. It will probably mean re-designing/fabricating some stuff but I think starting with just a rear engine setup is going to be easier.honestly i say just get the engine in the back and turbo that. i feel like it would be alot less complicated.
but it's your dream and the 2 engine would be sweet!
I will definitely be cleaning my welds better in the future, especially when I start welding stuff in permanently. I talked about it with some FSAE guys and while 4 wheel steering would be awesome but I'm not gonna try it on this build.This is forking amazing; and clean off weld areas when you can. You'll get stronger welds/better penetration (heh) and less porosity in the weld itself. I mean "grind away paint/crap before welding" is all.
Otherwise... kick ass! Are you going to have 4-wheel steer? I don't recall seeing a post about it... but I know older Preludes had 4WS in the late 80s and 90s; but the rear only turned a few degrees, nothing over 10* I think.
Carry on!
