Look up Hewland or Xtrac if you really want Sticker shock. The Boxster box is only rated at 380nm of torque. Not that much more than a 901. I have one. The 901 is the worst option. It gets the job done marginally.
The G50 is so hard to find now. Plus they are $4-6K. The 915 ain't a much better option, although I have one of those as well. The 930 is a choice, not the best but it is the strongest of the cheap boxes. Still you'll have 6-8K$ in it when you are up and running. The Audi 016 box might be an option. There are kit car guys running those. The strongest option is the Mendeola or Fortin gearbox. http://mendeolatransaxles.com/sdr.php If you want big power you have to be prepared to spend big money. |
