Thought I'd take it for last run up the road, wound the boost back up, before taking it off road for winter for some "work", ended up racing a Evo 6, and box and diff gave up at 80 mph, I got a spere one but it's not really worth it.. I got no gears at all! I'l post some pics later, conclusion 360 box don't take 20psi and hard launches!! :lol:

That's pretty crap, but I guess you knew that would happen sooner or later anyway :lol:
Those M90s are meant to be hard as nails though, once you've got one you can go find that nancy evo and show him who's boss.

Bolt in a Porsche transaxle - it's the way forward - if you don't do it, no one will

Aye I suppose the 911 one would mean cutting out the spare wheel well like :lol:
Are those 924 ones strong enough? The good thing about moving the box to the front is that the space left at the back will be massive, big enough for almost any diff.

Impreza (4.1 if you want short gearing)

Corvette C5 transaxle...Tremec T56 6 speed, and I think it *may* just be able to handle the torques ;)

Which vettes have transaxles? Is it just the very latest ones, or just the top daddy ones (Z06 etc)? I can't find any transaxles on US ebay.

All C5s (5th gen), I believe. It's pretty much the daddy of RWD transaxles in production cars...although whatever the hell is going in the Melling Hellcat is going to be interesting...

cheers
