I don't believe it would. It would depend if he uses the actual SVX gears or if he uses the same gearset from the original 4.11 trans.
If I remember correctly, the SVX transmission is beefed up by using 5 sets of planetaries instead of just 4 which is what other Subie phase1 transmissions use. Someone would have to confirm that as I can't say it as fact... In any case, the SVX transmission was definitely built stronger.
