After breaking the box...
http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=471063

Spent a bit of time building the box back up. Just waiting for a spare moment to whack it all back in the car. Cheers for the help again Joe.



It's now been treated to a 3.44:1 final drive and clubman Evo gearset.

Might get into fourth on the strip now.

Right, after a bit of fiddling the box is back in the car and is slick as you like. I'm chuffed with it.

Ah I had 13 inchers on my last run too.

I've not really had much of a play yet. Ask me what it's like after a few hours drive to the pod.

I was literally just changing into 4th, so around 7400-7600rpm at 99mph.

ST ratio gearbox.

Maybe that's a bit of a high guess. Maybe it's a bit lower. 7200rpm

Either way as many revs as I dare before changing up over the line at exactly 99mph.

I thought it was a 3.1 lol

What's standard in the metro turbo?

6750? Seemed like a million + rpm.

Unless its to save the time on another gearchange, why such high rpm ?

I used to hang on to third until well into the red (6500) but I find its quicker to change up and let the torque do the work .

Well, it's not quite as high As I first thought, but yes, I wasn't really able to use enough of 4th. So hung onto 3rd as long as possible.
