Don, I’m a cheapskate. :D
I’m just going to throw a super-diff in it and be good with it.
Seeing as how a Quaife would easily double the cost of any good gearbox, it's hard to blame you there! And nothing wrong with slowing down a bit to collect some parts, it's better than getting halfway through a job before realizing you need another $750 worth of parts to finish!

A better answer is that Superdiffs are significantly lighter.

Jeez, how much are Quaifes over there, then? Quaifes are amazing value for money – at least, they are over here. Just paid roughly £700 UK for one for my 901 Porsche trans. That's cheap.

Last I checked, a Swingaxle Quaife runs about $1,500-$1,600. I paid about $1,300 for my "built" 4.37 'box three years ago with H.D. axles, superdiff, hardened keyways, 3.78 mainshaft, etc.
We might have finally found the anomaly, the one Porsche part that's actually cheaper than the VW equivalent!
