Get it mapped and then you will have no choice to get a box

The strain will only get worse on the box after the map.

I think your best bet is to cancel the map and get the box sorted first. If it does go bang on the dyno it will only cost more to fix in the long run.
I know that's not the answer you want to hear, but it is the safest way to go.

It's not normal to need 5th on a dyno, but speak to your mapper and see what he says.

when was the fluid last changed? Castrol syntrax works very well but does degrade.
