Maybe we could get to know each other a little better, then I could send my car down? Top work there.

DAMN!! Sorry dude.

But to be honest, it really doesn't surprise me....I reckon you had the strongest Starion box ever.

What's the plan now?

It may be hard to believe, but my Supra boxes generally let go when I was reasonably "gentle" with them - in top gear, 5th just couldn't hold the torque at around 5000rpm, it would just rip the small 5th gear apart. I'm hoping the new gearset will be significantly better. If you're at 25psi with a Starion box, you must be VERY gentle with it. I was only at around 18psi with mine.

I would have a plan B at the ready if I were you!

ahh that explains why my car doesn't like being in 5th gear....
