Not really, they've built a mean C5 before but not a lot is known about it. But given their trailblazing C6 gearbox hardening endeavours, they might be handy at uprating the C5's box. I've asked but got nowhere. Si might find better inroads.

Even Tozzom8 who is a well respected tranny builder over the pond says there's no such thing as a bulletproof C5 RS6 slush box.
