FWIW, you can destroy ANY manual transmission by driving like a nut, regardless of how much money you dump into it. There's not yet such a thing as a psycho-proof T-5 transmission. If you go blasting away on the thing constantly, banging gears without lifting, and whatnot, you're going to either make an error while shifting or it'll just plain give out on you from wear at some point, at which point the almighty and expensive tranny you poured so much cash and labor into will still be just as broke as the dime-a-dozen four-banger tranny you could've installed in its place.
No offense, but if you can learn to drive a manual without abusing it, you won't have to go on an expensive quest to put an indestructible T-5 behind your stock longblock.
