True. Maybe when I win the lottery and build a twin turbo 6.0, I'll have to give them a call....:)

Supe, are you using original BW gears or replacement gears in your WC T5? I am using the stronger Ford 295Z gears (I built it in about 1995) with a GM input shaft. It survived many clutch drops with slicks and speed shifting. Granted, that was with an L69 305 with some bolt on tweaks that ran 14.61.

There are much stronger gears, but they are much more pricey, as you stated.

BW gears. Car makes in the neighborhood of 450hp or so, but I cringe every time I shift. I have considered the G Force gears, but it reality, I'll try to squeak by with these in a NA setup (I rarely see anything but third and fourth gear). If I go forced induction, I will probably end up with a T56 unless I can find a good 4 speed, but it's h*ll to fit that thing in a Mazda.
