This isn't making good reading as I've just finished installing my cyclone box into my motor and I'm now concerned about its reliability 
I believe mine is the version 2 after the recall ( is there any way of checking this that the cluster is the newer version
) but it seems these are now prone to failure going by the original post and as mentioned earlier are being upgraded with a 3rd verion 
In two minds now whether to go with it or strip it back down and revert back to my reliable innocenti 4 speed box as intended, as the thought of it sheering teeth or locking up at speed is not filling me with any confidence in it

That looks to be the same as the one on the thread mentioned.
