The T5 box is differnt from the NA 850 the NA has shorter ratios,and the T5R has slightly different ratios it will do 60 in second and top is a little longer 1st 3rd 4th were the same in the box T5 we opened !The difference between the t5 and t5r box is tiny and i doubt you will notice .You just have to make sure you get a box from an earlier T5 with the speedo pic up on the rear of the box,later cars picked it up from the ABS.
