f20 or f28??

hiya people just wondered that your thoughts was on gearbox preference?
im upgrading to 4x4 so either f20 4wd or the f28 just wondered what would members consider fitting as i have chance to buy either one or the other,
i would imagine the f28 would be heavier but how much heavier and what would the difference be performance speed wise on bottom an top end?
any advice would be greatfull cheers

I'd go F28 if it's a turbo engine

Or better still use a FWD box with a LSD. Less weight, better handling, less hassle, more reliable...
