Default Rallispec gears? Too good to be true?

Hi, i tought i'd post this here,as it will get more views.
I did a search for uprated gear sets,other than ppg,and found this site:RalliSpec - Gearbox Parts

I emailed them,asking about power limits for the RA gear sets,and got this reply:

Our RA gear sets will handle upwards of 350whp in street applications. That’s well in excess of 400bhp. For race applications its best to put a lower limit due to the high shockloads that occurr in race situations. So depending on what you are planning on using the car and where your final power/torque figures fall…the RA set may or may not be ideal. We offer PPG gear sets for extreme power applications and for race applications where an ultra reliable option is essential.

Thanks.

As im after a gear box that will take 400bhp,this seems too good to be true! Works out at £925 for the kit.

Whats your opinions?

sounds very much like a cheap nock off off ppg, which take 600+. wouldn't bother risking it, doubt your gaurenty will be worth much with them even if they give one.
