Hello,
The 4T transmission (e.g., in the 2er GTD), to my knowledge, is the longest in the 020 series. If you consistently drive with 0.9 bar of boost and have the ESP properly adjusted, you're close to the limit of what that transmission can handle, around 190 Nm. I destroyed mine with 1.2 bar, and that's why, along with the gearing, I installed a CYP from a 110PS TDI. Most of it is plug-and-play, but you will need a few parts. If you're interested in details, check out this

Best regards, Uli.
