Torsen makes the diffs (or at least has made the diffs, there are some differences from year to year) but there are claims about Porsche making or designing the transmission itself. I read it on NASIOC some time ago, I'll see if I can find the thread or article.

 

interesting , so that makes it the boxer engine
some ppl thought it was boxster engine lol isnt that a porsche?!

 

Boxster is a Porsche model.

 

does a boxster have a horizontally opposed engine? I thought it did?

I believe so.

 

coming from SOA itself, is a no! if it was porsche designed, shouldn't SOA acknowledge it already?

 

Maybe but a representative denying a link doesn't mean there isn't one, it'll have to remain a forum legend of sorts.

 

so Porsche shares knowledge to Subaru
and i even heard somewhere else that Subaru was using Mitsubishi turbos

 

didn't you read the post? your first statement is incorrect. the second is correct.

 

ej25 < 4g63....

 

Uhhh....I don't think Subaru uses Mitsubishi turbos. They use IHI turbos and I couldn't find any link between IHI and Mitsubishi. I even looked at my new turbo and didn't see any Mitsubishi symbols.

 

they used it in the bugeyed wrx, not the STi.

 

I'll check the turbo I took out, I believe it's an IHI turbo as well.

 

Incorrect Otter! A horizontally opposed 6 (eg Porsche 911) is perfectly balanced...4 cylinder is NOT....
