What's the strongest automatic/manual transmisision that has ever been fitted into a 924 that is able to withstand high horsepower? From my knowledge the 944 turbo transmission is able to withstand around 400hp and some have taken it higher but I'm sure a V8 swap with immense torque and high horsepower (in excess of 400hp) would tear it apart. Maybe there are some transmissions that can fit and withstand immense horsepower but no one has fitted them.

931s are the strongest, good for v8s..

Check on the texasperformanceconcepts.com or Renegade Hybrid sites, they are the ones who do the V8 conversions and would know the best options.

I've done some research and it seems the 01E 6 speed can handle immense horsepower which is in excess of 600hp. From what I've seen on the internet it seems that people have fitted it in their 924/944. The gearbox is also geared to achieve around 200mph from what I've read.
