Gearboxes for 5++ hp

[kwlw]

6E? Is that FWD or 4WD? I suspect that it's FWD...

I have one. It's 4wd. From 83 80 quattro. However I managed to break 2 gear gear tooth on it. It was due to putting 2 gear on 130 km/h.

Note, that these boxes are so old, that they usually have bazzilion miles on them. If you find one - I think complete rebuild will be needed. Now switched to US ones and happy. BTW they have very short gears, I'm not sure they are suitable for high HP applications (maybe ok if you start from 2nd gear).

With 426 PS and 411 ft / lb mine was fine with the US box, launching from 1st @ 7,000 RPM, yes!

EDU gearboxes can take over a 140 1/4 mile launches. Even 15 to 20 1st gear launches with Mihnea and Dougal aboard
And then offcourse my day to day abuse
I'm still very happy with it!

Are you implying that they are THAT heavy and create a lot more strain on the box?

Well they are not lightweights

Will a DSY gearbox from a rs4 fit?

[zlobo]

wich gearbox is used on a 7a (A90) quattro? and what is the ratio?

[Henka]

01A, 37/9 or 41/9. My guess is 37/9, which is 4.11:1

[caterpillar]

41/9 are for 1,8 liter and extreme 90 hp(115 hp). all trannys will fit in,also dsy(6t). in audi 90 its most likely 4,111,but the gearcode will tell more.(the code are between the 2 upper bolts,om the bellhousing)
