I think rs1800 would be best bet. The diesel box seems abit long. depends how much acceleration your willing to sacrifice

Just because I keep talking about definetly doing it doesn't mean I'm actualy going to do it.

Stock ERST box will be fine on the 2.0. Most tweeked RST's don't have the required grunt to make use of the diesel box ratio's so the torque from the 2.0 will be well and truely knackered. It still amases me the myth about diesel boxes offering this and that. It's almost comical if it wasn't for the fact people actually beleive the rubbish :(

Mines running the 1.6 box, but starting to hate it as it revs abit high on motorways, and you seem to run out of revs abit quickly, making it seem like your loosing the use of most or the torques. It is a good box, but id have gone for something longer. I will probs look for a erst box eventualy aswell
