Think I'll go for an uprated Turbo.

Done some more digging on the 2.5 upgrade and it's the mega-torque that strips gears (2nd and 3rd). Putting a 6-speed box in the car solves the problem as it's much stronger. But in a classic shape it means also changing the rear diff too. I'm certainly not going to start spending that kind of money.

Thanks for the advice.
