Mi16 Gearbox Change

Recommended Posts

daneldridge23

Picking up a new gearbox on Thursday,

 

How much difference do you think in acceleration from my standard mi16 box, to a Be3 1.6 ratio with mi16 4.4 cwp and lsd

 

Mi engine running around 190 bhp

no difference in 1st and 2nd but from then on the 1.6 with 4.4 will leave it for dead.

If you're going from an open diff to an LSD then it'll be a lot better in 1st and 2nd too!

Sorry, poor English, maybe still drunk from last night.....

I guess it hits the limiter in 5th quite quickly, what speed is that?

Cheers!
