It will hold if you drive it gently...and 100 shot doesn't fall under "gently".

Re: t5 manual transmission help
You should consider a T56 swap. Will run you about $2000, but you can offset that cost by selling your T5 setup. I got about $500 for my trans which brought the T56 cost down considerably.

See the T56 sticky at the top of this forum for info on the swap.
