Hey howsit man? Didn't know there was another South African here I heard that the W58 doesn't stand up well to Twin Turbo power unless it's been built. I need to ask the dealer about this to confirm...

Where are you from?

I'm from Pretoria. Copy that dude. That's why I came to this thread because I knew I'd get a response from him. I don't intend to buy the 5MT, 6MT is what I've always been after...like you say, spending money to upgrade the 5 speed is unwise - rather get the 6MT and spend cash on upgrading engine, suspension, etc. It's just that, the Twin Turbo 5MT I'm talking about here has damn good modifications...
