john555 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 can any one tell me if its possible to fit a 6 speed box for any other golf/audi that will give a better motorway gear and be able to withstand 280bhp Link to post Share on other sites
Brianvr 0 Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 was thinking of the same thing recently.is it possible to fit maybe a turbo deisel box ,or is it cheaper to change the final drive ratio,or even a differant 5th gear.for lower rpm at moterway speed,as this should give better mpg also.

philbatesvr6 0 Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 nah i think that the gears are too long , i would want a box that had slightly shorter gears to pick the speed up quicker i mean it flies from 60-100 but feels abit flat from 0-50 Link to post Share on other sites
Cowpatmatt 0 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 on the six speed conversions the sixth gear tends to be the same ratio as the old 5th gear. they change the ratios for 1st 2nd and 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites
