Volvo 850 T5R question......

Post by Christian and Beccy »

I have heard that the T5R has an uber strong gearbox. Does anyone know if this is true? :wink:

How uber are you looking for? 400lb torque seemed doable but I'm not sure how much more.

I had heard that there is a Volvo 'box that the FWD European drag cars use as its supposed to be bomb-proof.

However, 400lb would be sufficient. :-D
