Some time ago I purchased a box for R&D. I started with a 93 non-turbo 5 speeds that had 40K on it and dismantled it. Current plans include a Girdle made of 7075 aluminum attached with ARP studs to reduce/eliminate the case flex. Plans for inner driver made in billet are also in the works. All 3 covers are going to be reproduced in 7075 as well, and tie into girdle. Gears will be shot peened and cryo treated, and a bearing to keep 3rd in its place better. Box will have LSD diff and #8 primary chain set.
The idea is this: a stock gearbox can't handle power. Why? Because increased power makes the case spread, causing the gears to move apart and destroying the box. So if you prevent the case from moving apart, it should take the power.
This will make for a really nice box when done, how much power it will take, I haven't a clue, but I know it will be considerably more than a stock unit.
