Default Rear transfer ratio question

Hi,
White older WRC gearboxes now getting quite hard to find, there are still alot of Legacy gearboxes around.
The thing is most are 1.000:1 and WRX uses 1.1:1.

Would switching rear transfer from a WRX work?

Do you mean diff or transfer case on the back of the gearbox.

The transfer case.

Take for example a TY754VRAAB, it's a 3.9 final drive, but has a 1.000:1 rear drive. A TY754VN1AA has a 3.9 final drive, but 1.1:1.
Would these be usable by switching the rear transfer case?

Yes it can be changed but you need to know what your at.
You would need to change your drop gears.
