Gearbox question.

Hello all. I just bought a '92 940 turbo and it's got a 4speed with overdrive which works fine.. however i am looking into possibly doing some modifications to squeeze some more power out of the engine. Is this gearbox suitable for any significant power gains? I seem to read that m90(?) is the gearbox of choice... but i am pretty clueless so any help here would be appriciated. Also how hard is the gearbox swap? Bearing in mind i am only just starting working on cars. Thanks, =)

Depends really on how much you want to squeeze out of the engine.

from watr ie been told, the 4 speed + OD is "ok" for up to 300hp, but the M90 will take 500... still worth getting the M90 anyway!

The 4 speed with overdrive is a stronger gear box than the 5 speed.
