Probably not if you step on the engine hard and frequently. If you only romp on the gas every now and the, the TR3650 might last much longer before stress fatigue overcomes the weak parts in the gear box.

However, I am sure there are upgrades to make the TR 3650 just as hard core as an upgraded T56.
