RE: vw gearbox question.

what that runs on your clio engine? sounds cool mate.

from what i have heard, people running big power vw's (yes there are some!) the 02a can handle upwards of 350whp without trouble. however people also report that harsh gear changes and driving style = early death for the 02a.

the 02m gearbox is the same as far as im aware but has a different interlocking mechanism, which is much stronger.

hope this helps dude, obviously this info isnt from my experience so i cant realy comment.

RE: vw gearbox question.

i suppose any gearbox however strong will always die with the wrong driving style but the O2A box is very strong and does not need to much work to mkae it fit, so im just keeping my options open for "just in case"

RE: vw gearbox question.

that 5 is running a 2.0 16v 172 engine with a turbo running 400bhp@1.5 bar of boost, so if he is running it and hammering it and it still survives it will do me lol.

what boxs are in mk3 vr6's
