In my opinion, You have to use the 6 speed if you go with the chevy motor because the torque will grenade the 5 speed. Now you might get by with the 5 speed on the audi motors and I believe the 5 speed will bolt right up to them with no special aftermarket part. I've heard the 2005 and up 5 speeds are stronger. Another down side of the 6 speed is it will cost 2-4 times more than a 5 speed. Save some $$ going with the 5 speed to audi motor. If you go with a subi motor, I'd use the subi tranny too. There's kits out there to convert them into 2wd transmissions.
