Default Gearbox

My car is off to a1 rally sport for a big turb conversion next week so i need to sort out the gearbox as its already a bit notchy into third so i dont think its gonna last long

ive heard of people having them rebuilt and shot pinned will this cope with 360+bhp what sort of price am i looking at.

or bearnie gearboxman recomended a big tooth box but i am thinking it sounds like big bucks.

Unfortunately big bhp esc cossies are big bucks to maintain.The standard box is ok for around 350bhp after that wear will eventually happen, depending on how you drive it etc like heavy launches.Dig deep if you can for reliability.
