Not Correct.....the XT6 automatics came with 3.70's, and use the same rear diff housing as the SVX, so you'd just need to swap in the SVX LSD unit into one.....and they can be bought cheap on USMB

Also the 07+ wrx uses a 3.70 rear diff in the same 5bolt sideplate r160 as us. You still need to swap the guts but thats about it
