Hi, I've got a good old 99 Legacy station wagon. I'm looking to turn it into a hybrid by putting an electric motor onto the input shaft of the transmission somewhere. In the process I want to build the motor controller myself using arduino, because $200 to control 6 MOSFETS is a little ridiculous when motor theory is ~100 years old. If anyone has opened up a Subaru 5MT help would be greatly appreciated in find a place for the motor.
