You'll get the best of both worlds - acceleration and easy cruising - with this five speed gearbox.
Built on a later model rod change transmission with pot joint outputs, this box is a direct swap for later models. Pre-rod change cars will require updating to accept this unit.
The final drive ratio is 3.4, so you'll have the acceleration as before through fourth gear. But with the overdrive fifth gear, the effective final drive is now 3.1 – great for highway cruising. Fully assembled, ready to install. Only covered under guarantee for parts with no labor. OTHER VARIANTS such as straight cut or with x pin diffs available. Remember: the weakest part of any A+ gearbox is 2nd gear, and this stronger box is no exception. Not for Turbos where boost is adjustable or powerful engines. Available in rod-change only.

1st gear 3.282 2nd gear 1.966 3rd gear 1.283 4th gear 1-1 5th gear is technically an overdrive gear and produces a reduction of .882
Question:
Will this fit a 998 engine?
Answer:
It would but I wouldn't recommend fitting a 5-speed to anything but a built 1275cc engine.

Question:
What's the difference between the three 5spd transmissions?
Answer:
The difference is the three 5-Speeds is in the gear ratios and design. The MSG4 5-speed is for street-driven fast road 1275s or 1380 engines same gear ratios as standard + the 5th gear added. MSG5 has a close ratio gear sear. First gear is taller, meaning less acceleration off the line, but second, third and fourth are closer together for sportier driving. MSG7 has close ratio, straight-cut gears. Straight-cut gears will make more noise.
