Hello,
I've come across all sorts of great info on this forum. So I thought I would join up to ask more questions... I'm from the V8 Porsche community - I have a 997 with a Gen V LT1 mated to a G96 (car was previously a tiptronic, so I opted for G96 during the swap). Machined my own adapters, uses a stock 991.2 or 991.1 GT3 twin disc clutch with dual mass flywheel. It's a fantastic combo! Of course, as you all know, the annoyance of the Porsche boxes with V8s is the short gearing. Albins used to make a 0.6 6th gear, and it sounds like they are planning to bring this back based on some emails exchanged with Retro-Sport.
What I am wondering, is there any Audi boxes that share components? It seems like the 0A2 and Cayman S G87 are identical except gear ratios, so the 6th gear set that Advanced Automation sells is a perfect drop in for the Cayman swaps (or just getting an entire 0A2). However, I am unable to find anything on the G86/G96/G97 for Audi interchangeability. 01X seems to be from a similar time period, but maybe it's not similar internally.
Thanks!
