Im 99.99% sure the Boxster TIP will not bolt up to the 2.7T... the casing is different... I've never tried to match them, but from my experience with these trannies, ZF made the made the tranny for a host of cars, but the difference between then was power tolerance and casings. Yes they are nearly identical ZF trannys (same model number different sub number), but they are different. But it doesn't matter as its nearly identical to put a GT3 based engine in a boxster, let alone something like a audi engine...


And honestly, NO a 550-700hp Boxster would not be fun... except for in a straight line after you got moving (50+mph)... on a AX track, you better be on some warmed up slicks if you want to hook up at all... on a track it would better, but you better be ready to spend $$$$ to swap trannies to a manual (so you can use a true LSD) because lord knows you will need it with that power and the do all the time it will take to get the car setup because with 300+ and all suspension goodies you can buy its still hard...
