Unlikely that you'd be able to overboost sufficiently to kill a gearbox if the fuel cut was working properly mate. Wouldn't help one that was on the way out though I guess. It is an 11 year old high performance car, most likely wear and tear- the people rebuilding it should be able to tell you for sure.

Hope it doesn't cost you too much!
