What a load of *******, A BE1 gearbox is no better or worse than any other, the Ratio's you have been told again is rubbish as 3 & 4 share the same gear cluster unless a C/R box, It sounds like a 205 1.6 GTi maybe with a Mi16 5th which will be a huge jump, Top speed won;t be anywhere near that if it's good on Acceleration ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |

I would, But depending on use the 1.6 or 1.9 box with a 4.4 CWP gives a cheap upgrade for track work, not much use on the road thou I'd be rich if everytime I;ve been told it's a .... was true ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |

Unless you've got a raised rev limit i'd stick with a xsara 5 speed personally, using the xsara rack and PAS ram. You'll run out revs and its a pain in the arse on the road. The xsara box is a tad lighter and a tad stronger than the 6 box. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
