Hehehe, you're so funny grumbly.....

But it is kinda the obvious thing to do.

And secondly, I do not know how to "bring the boost u" as you say.
If you mean increase the boost, search through the past threads for boost controllers.

This is my advice... Keep the old gearbox for parts, you are sure to blow up another gearbox later, as these things are made of glass... You might be able to make a good gearbox out of two of them...

gearboxed are not made of glass, they're indestructible. as far as i've experienced. apparently the drive shafts usually break first?

I wouldn't call them indetsructable. My old gearbox broke a pinion gear, and then punched it out the the side of the casing.
