ok, first of all you need to learn how to use commas and full stops more!

As for the gearbox, why don't you take it to CV and get the boys to have a look at it, they tuned the car and should be able to diagnose it

lol

do a big skid, stuff your car doing the skid, turf it to someone else, make it their problem!

Instead of making a new topic for every little problem you probably dont even have , call your tuner (CV in your case) or pm them first , 99% of the time they can help that way.

IMO the 4speed auto should not have any issues with your BIG power levels and the converters are not too bad either, but in sayin that how BIG was your burnout , do you have an oil cooler, were you sitting on the brake.... you might have cooked a clutch pack/ and or Bands in your box, or even bent some fins in your converter.. Ask yourself.... are you sure there is a power drop?

Sitting on brake for about 5 minute. Yes oil cooler. The box is fine. But they put it on the dyno and it has droped from 181.8rw/kw to 160rw/kw. And between 2 to 3 rpm their is no pull

I agree with MS700, just do burnouts till your heart is content then get your mummy to sell it. Just make sure that when you advertise it you put "never thrashed, one lady owner" in the advert and no one will ever suspect how much you have phucked the car up. I suggest for even more fun try switching from D to R and R to D during the burnout. I love doing that in my dads Merc

I'd go for a 5000RPM stall as you can do better burnouts (impress your mates heaps better)
