[urq] 91 200 Trans

[Robert A Dupree]

Jack, 
  In my case I've chosen to go the 200 4.11 trans, and a custom 4.11 Torsen rear into the small chassis diff housing because I much prefer the spacing of the gearing in the 200 unit.  My primary usages will be long cruises where the taller 5th of the 200 unit, even balanced against the shorter final drive will result in a more enjoyable in-cabin sound (lower RPM) at the average cruising speeds.
  The fact that by doing so I also get a more usable 1st gear in the process, get to ditch the lockers & Bowden cable junk too - those are all bonus.  When talking folks who've driven both - once you add the 20v tweaked power you can via double torsens arrive at the mystical throttle-on-over-steer state.  That's what I am aiming at, something I loved about my old 911 C4...

Cheers,
Rob D.
