Never heard of a "revers gear" or "Cyncor"???

You sure its not just a final gear ratio change?

So replacing the reverse gear gives you better acceleration? :?

Seeing as you'll be pulling apart the cyborg box, it would be a good time to check the condition of the LSD, (I assume there is one fitted to this box) as the stock unit seems to be made of tin foil.

@myfeckinfto, by changing the cog to a lighter unit (weight saving), and changing the gear ratio on reverse, It is quite possible that the acceleration, in reverse, would be improved. Fairly basic stuff really 8)
