seams common that the std boxes go bang anyone know how much damage it actually causes to the rest of the motor? of coarse you shut id down straight away.. Depends how quick your going, shift from 4th to 3rd at 70ish on the track destroyed my box and peppered the engine with debris. At these speeds the damage has happened before you know what has gone! That said, I bet that went with a few schrapnelly noises! On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:
