   Wouldnt use the VTR box, ratio's are very long
   
   Use a vts box if you have 1
   
   If you can get 1 get a rallye or XSI box, but usually a fair whack more than the S box

   Tell whoever told you to fit the 8v box to stop giving people completely wrong information.

   Yeah yo e itthe wrong way around, the VTS box has closer ratios so acceleration is a lot better iirc. I have a VTR box and it's just sluggish, so definitely go for the S box

   Not just the VTR box that's sluggish. 8v engines in general

   VTS box doesnt have closer ratios.
   
   Rev drops are exactly the same, it has a different final drive.
