I vote for the sub motor and trans. Overall I think it will be your best bang for the buck. I love the idea of LS1 power, but you're already short on space behind the seat and I think the longer V8 motor will make things worse. You would also have to upgrade to a Boxster S 6 speed or try and find an audi 01E 2wd transaxle. That base 5 speed won't easily hold up to that power. I don't like the idea of trying to turbo the 2.7 either. I think you'll be disappointed by the amount of $$ you spend for 300ish hp. Another idea might be a 911 3.6 or 3.8?
