Replacing the stock differential with a quaife or torsen makes it strong enough to support more than most people can throw at it.
If that isnt enough, quaife makes a custom straight cut gear set which is about $5000. A couple companies have made custom gearsets as well.

does he have a web site? i am on my second transmission, and both of them have had bad syncros. it is really annoying. plus, this one has a really crappy sounding rattle when it is in idle, but it goes away when i push in the clutch. any idea what that would be? is it the synchros.

did you use the Spec TOB?  lol oh and as FastCougar found out...the Quaife gear set will only work with the 4 cylinder cause the input shaft that comes with the gear set is made for the 4 cylinder tranny.
