not at the moment but it will be one day. We did plan on getting the current power down to the ground better first then build on it.

Theres a guy running a mini over here which uses a dog box with an lsd but thats around 170bhp...
Im not too up with cars and gearboxes but I got told a while ago, best get the car set-up for handling first then get the power and gearbox sorted out. Think an LSD would be alright for the moment then get the engine and box sorted later... |

cheers for that martin, yes the setup will be sorted first...no point in traveling quick if you career off at the first corner. however, i think id have the g'box in after id sorted the handling and weight, but before i started tuning in anger. LSD(or ATB) would go in asap anyway to be honest. the question still remains, do you go for a dog box or just have the Quaife close ratio kit installed?
