   good point ppavli.. but do you think these series 1 rallye boxes will be hard to get hold of? and how much would one roughly cost?.

   I've voted 1.1 box
   
   For 4 simple reasons
   
   1. Short ratios
   2. Cheaper than VTR/VTS and S1 rallye
   3. Less likely to have been ragged
   4. Loads of them about

    S1 Rallye gearbox will not necessarily mean quicker to 60mph, you need a third gear change to get this, which you dont with VTS/GTi box so considerable time is lost there. It will be quicker then the VTS box after 60 up to 120mph or whatever it will reach.
