sideways for as long as you can hold it

up to you
4wd box chocolate....bull shit....standard is 220bhp...and the limit is 350-380bhp...so a not a shy limit i guess..

it can take less then the 2wd box....only because of the traction a 4wd has...it slip less easy...
i've been through 4 new boxes and 5 rebuilds in the time i had my 4wd tt estatesome lasted a whole day with some sprinting action (cooked 2 in the space of 2 revs 1/4 mile and 0-60 days) and one lasted a whole 23 miles before giving up the ghost (and that was new from ford who said they wern't going to warranty it because it wasn't fitted to a normal car)

chocolate boxes they might not be, but i know plenty of people who keep breaking them, and some only put 236 brake through them
