Best tranny for turbo Q

[rocco2nr@hotmail.com (Joe Doty)]

I have a 4K in my turbo car...its way too short.  I personally plan on going 
any 3.67 final drive close ratio trans.  I have an AUG I'm gonna throw in 
soon.  There's nothing wrong with the close ratio part, its the having a 
high-numbered final drive that makes the gears too short.
