Posted 09/11/06 08:15 AM Share Posted 09/11/06 08:15 AM I have just had the 2800 dollar jobby done to my box from Prestons. All of the parts he uses are stronger than the standard BA parts. There is another XR running around with the same box, but he is pushing just under 400rwkws, whereas mine is nearer 270rwkws.It drives fantasticaly, and really changes in an instant. With the standard stall convertor, and some mods that Andrew does, I can get to almost 2600rpm!They have my thumbs up for service, price, and bullet boxes.

I would say Kezza that guy you spoke to at prestons had NFI, you explained yourself wrong, or he was in a rush to get you off the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They use Fred at Protrans (www.protrans.com.au) for their transmission work. He did the work on my car, even before I was a customer of CV Performance.
