Doesn't matter, using the 5hp24 in this way will make it probably weaker than the 19. Welding the diff on any AWD normally damages it because the torque only driving the front of the trans. Not made for that.
I have a 24 too but not gonna attempt to use it.

Just went on ebay and spent the extra couple hundred for the 2.8 FWD so I wouldn't have to modify anything but yeah basically same thing, elvis. I also saw someone do this on a porsche boxter on different forum, same setup. He already had a 5hp19.

I am wondering what mid engine car you're doing, I'm building a murcie lp640

But you will also need matching TCU and change coding for 4 wheel drive so that engine, gearbox and ABS are all coded for 4WD otherwise they will complain about incorrect coding.

yeah it varies you can get things pretty cheap on ebay if you just keep checking but the trans can come from a passat that's the one I have, audis, BMW's and Porsche have the same transmissions but probably a bit expensive from porsche.
I wasn't sure if I'd need the trans unit but I bought it anyway and the connector. Just bought the cheapest one, they range from very low to very high prices.
Used stuff is cheap man I bought this like new car for $1000
