How much torque can the gearbox take? How about the rest of the transmission? Does anyone know or could they point me in the direction of a website that would have this listed.

Same as ordinary box, AFAIK, and the transmission generally probably less than Sti type R/RA etc which have the bigger rear diff, drive shafts etc.
My P1 runs about 325bhp/285ftlb and seems OK apart from the regular P1/StiV fourth/fifth gear graunch rebuild every so often.

My sti5 should have a similar gearbox
No probs with 400bhp and 350lbs torque
and I expect it to have no probs with a bit more power and torque -never had any gearbox problems at all...........
But then I never do any Santa Pod type antics
Gear can be a bit of a pain sometimes into 1st and 2nd but then its always been like that
Clutch - sti original - dont expect to last too long - AP Organic holding strong
