Mine has the TY752 And I'm going to start upping the power soon,I might start looking for a new box now lol
Mine is the RA box and love the close ratio so not sure what I would go for if I was in your situation
Let us know how you get on in your search and how the new box feels.
Hope it all goes well for you

Did you have any luck with a new box mate?... I've just done exactly the same thing at oulton park yesterday. Got the same 752 box although it's ment to be the stronger one in the RB5. Only had it rebuilt last week aswell lol. Can't bring myself to buy a 6 speed with me only running 335bhp surely there's something that'll do the job?

Have a look at The Rig's other gearbox threads mate. There is a 3rd gear upgrade quiet expensive tho and there is a gearbox bracing mod over in the US and I was told they Scooby bits are working on the same mod.
