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
