      Of course you can rebuilt it.

      They are pretty week.

      I'm not sure if giving your transmission drugs would help anything.

          I guess I should have asked is it better to rebuild it or swap it with something else and if so any suggestions, also lsd makes it run smoother lol or at least thats what the talking bunny told me

              if you need a tranny with LSD in it, go to santa monica, save yourself some cash.

                        I'd recommend swapping to an auto tranny.

                        I love trannys.

                          then go boosted S54 and use the M3 trans ;)

                          but for M10 boost use the E30 M trans IIRC the bellhousing bolts up the same

                              ^^ for your m20 you'll need a g260 off an m20 if you want the gearbox to bolt up fine on the correct angle.
                              OP Your gearbox should handle a boosted m10 just fine as long as its in healthy shape and your running a good hd clutch. Unless your after the same power as good 'n' tight is running in his m10 turbo with nitrous then upgrade to a larger gearbox from an m30 535i e28/e34 g260/6 which is perfect for stupid amounts of power
