Fix headers n retune for more low along with that power.
Once auto breaks do manual conversion then wind up further.
May be worth doing e85 once manual & driveline can take.

I've gone 10, because I don't think 15 would fit above the HDi intercooler. It would fit above a smaller intercooler though.

Will you go 6MT or DCCD.

I know yours makes more low down torque / power than mine (and thus more strain), but the only problem I've had with my box since being built was centre diff shearing.
Although I do like the 6mt idea better

Centre diff planetaries and main gear / output shaft is what i would be worried about disintegrating with hard shifts
Try modify valve body to reduce line pressure if its smacking gears.

What Mick said. If it's "over clutched", drop the line pressure in the VB...
Mine is clutched up to the max, same as Mick's, and the VB makes 40% more line pressure than stock, which we initially worried about. Eventually the TCU adjusted to shift no harsher than when I just had VB on stock clutches - firm shifts but nothing that makes you cringe (BANG!) .
And if your TCU is not learning and pulling out pressure to protect the box, for whatever reason (reseting it or the tune isnt right?), perhaps be careful with changing into peak torque? 273kw shouldn't break anything, if all the TCU mechanics are working as they should...
I think we've talked about all this before, so hopefully something there that's of some help...if you're ever in Melbourne, come visit!
