    so...coming up from Robert St turning onto Uni going west, I went WOT.....boost rolled in and like "CRUNCH!" Serisouly it was like CRUNCH!!!
    My RPMs shot up and it was a little shaky until no more pull. I knew what happend. So I stuck her in 3rd and drove the rest of the way.

    This wasn't a WOT run going 1st into 2nd, this was in 2nd gear, on load, and WOT at 2500ish RPMs.

    SO.... time to look for a Outback tranny. Unless I will just put in the gears from my L tranny onto this one since my L tranny hasn't given up yet. hA! Same gearing! muahaha Actually.... I can press out the 3.900 pinion gear and put the 4.111 onto it and then VOiLA!

    244ft lbs of torque too muchie?

    ya, I still have my L tranny in-tack. The gears are still fine. My L/RS tranny are the same gearing, so all I'm just going to do is swap pinion gears and the 3-4 shift fork then I'm all set to go! muahaha!!

    I know there IS an AWD 5spd tranny at Upull. It is 4.111 as well...but gearing is longer 2-4th....
