A) I wanted to ask how many HP can i reliable get from the 5 speed tranny ??  and if i can only get ~320 hp, can i make something to it(the tranny) to withstand around 450-500 hp ? 
B) I saw the xs power kit on ebay > LINK <
Is the T61 turbo reliable or is it better to buy the kit + a better turbo separately ?
I plan on buying the kit + bigger injectors, another headgasket for compression, upgrade the fuel pump and mapecu.
But I can't do all this if the tranny will broke, so how many hp's is the limit ?  |
If you really want a TT, save for it. All these mods, including upgrading the brakes, differential, ignition system, etc., etc., will end up costing you more than a TT.
The 5spd can hold about 400rwhp. A T61 is reliable. You should always get a complete kit (eg. fuel kit or turbo kit). Do not try to piecemeal it together with turbo then header then hoses/lines/pipes/couplings, or injectors separate from fuel pump separate from fuel rail, and then try to piecemeal it all together and make it work. It probably won't work properly, and you'll end up with weeks or months of headaches.
