Where there's a will there's a way...

How much are you willing to spend? How much downtime are you looking to put up with? Who's going to do the labor? Those are questions that inversely relate to your question.

While I dont see a purpose in making it RWD... AWD would be hot...
Where theres a credit card, theres a way...
I really doubt this would end up being anything under 8-10K to complete.
...Not to mention COMPLETELY void your warranty...

He could attempt to use someparts from a 1/2G DSM... I suppose... prolly would need to heavily modify quite a few parts though, not to mention fabricate a few items.

7g's + the cost of the Evo, sounds like more than 10k like sebba said.
