We ran them on the metro van up to about 160 bananas. Smashed the cage on the first motion shaft bearing doing emergency starts at Avon. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

Not sure if Robert has a full helical set, I'm sure it's been mentioned before. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

I ran a 2.9 with std drops and 120bananas no worries. Would last forever at that. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I run helical drops and a straight cut clubman set . Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM |

As much as I respect roberts input, I would go Sc drops over about 180hp,

Helical drops, helical box, 3.1 diff and 130nanas. Touch wood haven't had any failures as yet with 2 years of abuse. Life is always a matter of opinion and quite frankly, no ones opinion really matters. |

I think a lot is down to the raw torque, and how the box is put together so here is no stack up of tolerances. I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

clubman set and helical drops, the drops and the clubman set are roughley the same price ............... with the clubman set you get better ratios ............... also in combination with helicall drops its a alot less noise, with the clubmanset i would say only 4% over helical gearset ............ i have stripped boxes and theres no wear with this combination even at 190 hp levels. and over 10k miles.| Page: |
