Hi guys! What's the best gearbox to put in a gti6-205 conversion. It's mainly for daily use!

Daily use, what sort of daily use?If you commute 50 miles to work on the motorway a 1.6 box may not be ideal. 1.9 is a very comfortable box, but I'm swapping mine for a 1.6 unit as I don't use the car. ________________________________________  |
