Hi mate. Thanks for reply. How do I know which box to get. I keep reading about the ratios have to match the diff. I'm unsure what will fit etc. My car is a 1994 turbo 2000. Running 340 bhp

Look above the starter motor on the bell housing and with a bit of luck there will be a white sticker it'll be your gearbox code and you'll be able to work out your ratios from that. As long as there's been no surgery it should also be on strut top as well.
