Curiosity got me to pondering the above questions....
Suppose non-Subaru motor for the Subaru transmission and non-Boxster/Audi engine for the Boxster transmission. What about axles and hooking up to the drive hubs? One easier or vastly less expensive than the other? EDIT 2/21/2016: Now with pictures comparing Boxster transmission to 901 transmission |

I'm surprised in two pages here nobody has mentioned gearing. . .
Which one runs taller and wider gear sets that would be better for a v8? |

The Audi gearboxes have interchaneable gears that allow you to customize it pretty well. Many diesel transmission options that put out some super tall ratios and 4 cylinder trans that are close and natrow. |
