Default Least expensive is to find a 5 speed from a 1.8t or from a 2.8 at a recyclers.

You can find them for ~750 . . figure 5-6 hrs labor to swap them.
You can swap a S4 or RS2 6 speed in but that will be way more $ and you'll need to swap a few other parts; output flanges or the front axles and hubs; rear diff or the ring and pinion gear; shifter, etc.<ul><li><a href="http://www.car-part.com/">http://www.car-part.com/</a</li></ul>

Default Ahhh Other than the shifter a RS2 should be a bolt up.

I'm not sure they are all that much stronger tho ..

Default You can have your trans rebuilt with some RS2 stuff...

like the hardened gears, etc,

If you want something stronger, then you don't have many options.<ul><li><a href="http://www.quaifeusa.com/transmissions/4x4/27G4x4.htm">http://www.quaifeusa.com/transmissions/4x4/27G4x4.htm</a></li></ul>
