LGT Gears in RS gearbox...400whp!

Hey...
So I have been researching a little and have come to the conclusion that I am going to put a 2005 Legacy Turbo GT gearset into my 2000 2.5rs gearbox.

Apparently, If I were to do the direct swap and just put the complete GT tranny into my suby, the speed sensor would not work. The Legacy tranny has no place to plug the speed sensor in because the GT gets its speed signal from its ABS. So logically, If I take the GT box appart and pull the gears and simply swap em over, I should be fine. No?

In the next year, I am going to swap the 1st and 2nd LGT gears for PPG straight cut 1/2.

Called Andrewtech a few times this week and couldnt get ahold of anyone...
So, Guess Im on my own with this little experiment.

Anyone know if this would work well for my application?
