Although when I replied I thought it was just the diff as I didnt read it properly.


The fundamental problem though, is that the concept of people tuning these RST's to the level that we do is actually beyond sane comprehension. Nobody in competition or racing is interested in what we do, hence all the 'proper' parts are not aimed at us. Consequently, none of these parts are warrantied for the sort of power levels we are putting through them. Would you pay £4k+ for a 'box knowing that if it shits itself, they'll not honour it? I wouldn't!! LOL.

Does look very nice though.
Same problem with the quaiffe gearkit for the escort cossy really, no one in rallying (which seems to be quaiffes main focus with the escos boxes) has over 500bhp on one due to the restrictors.


Personally if I was ever to do a RST, i would use a mondeo V6 box and quaiffe diff instead.
