Thanks alot, Mac VABCH (why does everyone have usernames so hard to pronounce?...).

That gives me some confidence. And yes, as Brent has just good things to say about the Astro, that does tell alot as well.

Especially I loved to hear about the 4. to 5. gearing as well. I've barely tried the 5. gear in my OE T5 on track- firstly it's a pain to hit it right, but also because of the large drop in RPM.

Is the 5. gear in the Astro a useable high RPM gear? I've been thinking that even if the 5. gear is upgraded you cannot use it hard because the shaft and the shafts bearings are too weak?
