Mort Donating Members 22 Member For: 15y 6m 8d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 03/07/11 12:12 PM Share Posted 03/07/11 12:12 PM Hi all,My question is.....What is the max power you can mod your car before you start putting the gearbox and diff under too much pressure?I'm looking to play around with some mods, but I don't want to run the risk of killing the above mentioned items.Thanks guys.Mort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeute338 Suspended 260 Member For: 16y 4m 1d Gender: Male Posted 03/07/11 12:25 PM Share Posted 03/07/11 12:25 PM well depends on what box and what diff...my 6speed manual and ute diff have coped alot of abuse at 330-350rwkw and still going strong...2nd gear burnouts, 3rd gear wheelspin at 100km/h when it comes on boost. I pop the clutch in second every chance I get... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillz Three pedals are better then two..
