[bergdani]

I think so...
But who much bhp will it take ane what can i do to make it stronger??

[Rocco]

Same strength gearbox like the 01a arv from S2 3b cars


You can abuse it . But first gear is weaker than the 01e's

Push it until you need another

[bergdani]

Should I try???

Should I try???

Yes,Why not? Is only a gearbox

It can take the 550hp if you keep the max torque low enough. 01A's are known to start breaking gears somewhere above 500Nm (engine), any gear. It also depends how you drive it and where at the rev range the peak torque happens. The lower the revs of peak torqs, the worse it is for the gearbox and every other component in the drivetrain.
