Anyone put a 6 Speed to a 2.5?
I am probably going to need a tranny so..
Ratio issues or anything like that?

Maybe if yer gonna get forced induction or something later on for the engine. But a car with the stock tranny might be easier to sell...

HI,
There is a Big difference in the ratios between the 5-spd. for the 2.5L and the 3.2L 6 spd. -
- 5-speed (G86.00)
2.5L
1st gear - 3.50
2nd gear - 2.12
3rd gear - 1.43
4th gear - 1.03
5th gear - 0.79
Final Drive - 3.89
5-speed (G86.01)
2.7L
1st gear - 3.50
2nd gear - 2.12
3rd gear - 1.43
4th gear - 1.09
5th gear - 0.84
Final Drive - 3.56
6-speed (G86.20)
3.2L
1st gear - 3.82
2nd gear - 2.20
3rd gear - 1.52
4th gear - 1.22
5th gear - 1.02
6th gear - 0.89
Final Drive - 3.44
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I am planning in the future.. Later this year, to put either a 3.4 in it or the IA charger on it. I am not planning on selling my box anytime soon.
Thanks for the replies

I know this is not the question you asked, but I've heard a lot of people say that the 6-speed in the Boxster, despite the cool-factor, is not a great transmission compared to the 5-speed, and that many "S" owners would actually prefer to have the option of taking the 5-speed. Just something to think about.

I did notice that too, that S owners were saying that also. Besides, S trans- 3500.00
2.5 trans - 1500.00 KISS keep it simple stupid. Thats what I go by.
Thanks for your input.
