Louissendel Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I got ym car mapped by a "decent" local tuner and about 5k after that my first and second synchro went and grinder like *****, got a brand new gearbox put in and 3k later exact same issue with first and second. Will this be down to him removing some torque limiter? (guess work) or will there be another reason I'm going through boxes. Just seems like it's too much of a coincidence that after putting 38k on the car it's gone through 2 boxes since a map. Tia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke4efc Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 It's probably the map. The gearboxes aren't rated for much more than stock output. You can expect to come across issues at the 140 mark I think, take it back to stock if you can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramanic Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Grearboxes are rated to be fine as long as it isn't over 200ft/lb of torque and can take 175bhp ...... Bud depends on driver and map also 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
