If your willing to spend big money on it, go ahead.

The T5 won't bolt straight up (Also, I see you have an S2. They have Getrag's, unless you converted it). You'd be better off finding a motor and T56 together. Don't know what else needs to be done specifically, but the general consensus you won't get much change out of 10k.

Just get a t56 they should fit ok and much stronger
