TR3160 vs MT82

[Brazos609]

I'm looking at the performance numbers for swapping a TR3160 into a 15-17 MT82 car. I like the slightly taller 1st-4th gears and slightly closer spaced 1st-5th gears. I think it would be a good performance upgrade overall with factory rear differential ratios. I'm not looking to drag race, more for road or rally. I think the TR3160 is a stronger more durable transmission than a Calimer stage 1 or 2 upgraded MT82 also.

That's a cool program you got there, I'm used to just doing this stuff in Excel lol...do you mind sharing it if it's free?

The 3160 is a good trans and yes it has slightly better gearing, but a Stage 2 Calimer MT82 with the optional cryo and polishing treatment on the gears would be my choice still. Plus in the end would be a much easier job than trying to swap the 3160 which is not exactly a direct drop in.
