717430 power limit - swampmonkey - 05-30-2013
hey there.
anyone got a chart or something of how much torque/bhp the gearboxes can take without breaking apart?
got a 717 430 gearbox and is wondering how much hp i can aim at without breaking it apart. stock clutch
RE: 717430 power limit - HaavardPYA - 06-03-2013
It depends on so many factors. Weight of car, low down torque, driving style, clutch etc
RE: 717430 power limit - swampmonkey - 06-03-2013
Ofcource.
Grip of tires etc.
That i understand.
But there could be others that have the gearbox and have found out how much it can withstand.
Torque is torque, it could be an "official"rating of the box?

I think as long as your stock clutch is holding the power, then you should not have a problem with gearbox ;-)

About 250Nm

hehe, that is true, but the engine gives about 250nm stock, so the question is where the upper limit is
either way, il have to try and see. hopefully the clutch will take the damage and not the gearbox
thanks for the answers, i have looked at your videos on youtube a couple of times Hansebanger, good shit!
