Right, I want big power from my coupé turbo. Problem is the transmission won't be able to cope with it. I've found a sports clutch that can cope with 500bhp and 400lb/ft so that's not a problem. There's also the possibility of putting in a F40 6-speed box from the new Vectra that can also cope with 400lb/ft.
My problem lies with the driveshafts. When the car is running big power and has a LSD and some sticky tyres fitted, the driveshafts are gonna get ripped to bits. Is there any companies that can make custom driveshafts that would be able to cope with huge power without any strain? Also how much would I be looking at? Haven't seen anything about driveshafts for the Astra Turbo, everyone seems to think they would be fine. :|
