Default Box for high power for long distances

Will be using the new s2 for everyday, but most of my journey is motorway based.

Not bothered about racing on motorway, so is it possible to get a box that will give me stoopid acceleration in 1-4 and nothing but economy in 5th?

Just checkin

Yes. You could put in ratios from other cars, but keep the 0.76 5th. To be honest, i wouldnt - the S2 has nice gearing. If u use it a lot on mway, then consider changing to a 3.58 final drive from a normal 1600 scort.
