Why? Quite a few of us WANT the Audi 5 in place of the Wasserboxer. Anything
is possible given enough money and/or mechanical ability. If you are asking
this question, it is not worth your money. The bellhousing bolt pattern being
similar is probably the only break you're going to get should you decide to
go this route. Even if you have the Wasserboxer on hand already, it's still
more economically and mechanically practical to sell it and buy and Audi 5.
