no links, but the Borg Warner was in a 4 cylinder, it was rated at 25 less ft lbs or torque and had higher gear ratios

The trick is to find the metal tag on the back of the trans case where the tailshaft housing bolts on. If the tag is missing, you chances of identifing the exact trans model decrease.

To identify the 4 cylinder T5, put the trans in first gear. Rotate the tailshaft where the trans yoke fits one turn. Count the number of turns the input shaft where the clutch disk fits turns. Then compare it to the chart. A 4 cylinder will spin the input shaft almost 4 turns (3.97:1 first gear).

Yeah, but just think of all the tire smoke you could generate!
