On phase 2 power the box will probably be ok, anything above that with a large boost spike and I've seen 5th exit the side of the casing and you change from 4th to 5th.

I destroyed many a f20 on my ph2.

I can imagine, seems people nearly get phase 3 figures from phase 2 anyway,

I sold my engine to a mate and against my advice he cranked the boost up a little about 5 mins before it went on the rollers, he ended up with a 4 speed F20 and a oily brake disc lol

Seen more f20's break then f28s.

But Rickardo ran one for ages, on 235ish bhp and had no issues.

but he didnt spin, limit, drive like a tool.

Awesome! Best of luck with it all, looks a lot more difficult than xe, and more expensive.
