Hi.

i'm rebuilding my XR2tt s2 rst box, but i want to raise top end.

as at the moment, redline @ 6000 rpm with 195/45/15 tyres = 133mph on GPS.

And the thing is, i get into a blast with other cars, and as soon as we get going, i hit my rev limit in 5th.

So,


if thats all thats available to me,

Then i think the mk2 fiesta Diesel final drive will be best.


But will the 1st gear set fit from the mk3 fiesta RS1800 fit a BC box as a straight swap? (is this IB5 box?)
