Because the barrel rotates, so you need a sweep of voltages, you use the same pot to setup the flatshift too.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

ST82 would fit indeed but you'll be on its limit so doubt you'll get a guarantee, though given the nature of the delivery I wouldn't imagine you having any issues.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

A standard box which is strengthened will do just fine.I've done trackdays with mine, no issues, and a whole mortgage less than one of those boxes you're looking at.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

I would sayt shotpeened internals and possibly cryo treated (clicky) is your best bet to make a 'box last. Otherwise as has been said just stockpile cheap boxes and replace it once or twice a year |

I wouldn't bother with the cryo treatment, just as Stan has, have them shotpeened, and if you want to go further, micropolished/superfinished after to reduce stress at the roots.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Otherwise as has been said just stockpile cheap boxes and replace it once or twice a year thats what i will probably do, im in a situation at the moment where i dont know what my future holds, theres going to be some big changes in my life which will be very positive eventually and will be for the best for me, i know im going to come out the other end happy, but its going to be very hard for a while but i dont think as hard as it has been for me, and i dont know when the good times will come back, if i had any sense id cash the car in after the repair but after the work ive put in and the amount of time/thought that ive put into it and how its kept my mind occupied in some hard times it means a lot to me, plus it will be a long time till i can get somthing on par with it if ever. so ill never sell it, its going to stay inside a main dealership safe, warm and dry until january when they will start the repair, ive told them i dont care how long it takes, they can have it a year, i just want it doing to a high standard. they will probably let me go in a and change the box and diff over while its in there i hope but i need a new clutch, the helix paddle with standard pressure plate is definatly not up to the job, since i put it in 5th instead of 3rd and it slipped like f**k for a few moments till i realised it wasnt wheel spin its never held the power since. ________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |

You could always flog it and try something with a bit more torque that doesn't shred it's gearbox every 5 minutes   |

I very much doubt they will let you do that Andy to be honest unless you know the owner or something, as their company insurance won't allow non-employees to carry out work in the workshop. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
