What FD's in it? Sounds like you want a 3.55. What revs is it doing at 70 at the moment?

[General Baxter]

around 3750rpm lol

im used to 100mph, at 2000rpm in 6th lol

[General Baxter]

F16 W372

would that be a better box?

[General Baxter]

Pointless for a xe nova though, you want it "alive" and revvy!

If you want 2k rpm at 100mph then get a vag derv lol

[General Baxter]

im looking at F20 aswell, but im not going to western super mare, or scotland to fetch a 100k gearbox
