Ehh...nope. They have a 1st and 2nd. If it has not been released yet it must be very soon. They told me it was due to be released last month. They were testing a few months ago.

From what I was told by PHII, even with their stronger 1st and 2nd, it's still not going to be able to take a lot of abuse such as hard launches on drag slicks. Just the way the gearbox is designed. What we need is a complete replacement gearbox designed to withstand a lot of power in all gears. It's not listed on their site but it's available, they told me about the complete shaft upgrade with 1st and 2nd gear about a year or two ago. It's an expensive custom job since it's part of the shaft, that's why it's not listed.
There's really no need to upgrade 3rd 4th and 5th, I've beaten the crap outta those gears without any problems. Unless of course you want different gear ratios.

Makes me want to sit down and design a fully sequential 5-speed to it...last thing I need is a 'box that pulverizes itself everytime you stomp it...
