That way round is probably a safer bet, but I don't want the transmission losses. The only cooling issue I can foresee being a bit of a challenge is for the turbo.
Fair do's sounds like your minds made up, however I doubt you'd notice the transmission loss (probably an extra 10%) and even if you did you could easily up the power and have a bigger rwd box to cope with that.
Be sure to start a build thread If you do as it sounds interesting.
